Winery notes (2023 Vintage)
"Burgundy in colour with a light crimson hue. Dried lavender and garigue, distinctly Te Muna perfume on the nose. An elegant palate with a warm core of brambled wild berries, porcini mushroom and red cherry in balance with the silk-laden tannins, which perfectly frame the wine. It speaks volumes to an incredible site."

93/100 Erin Larkin, RobertParker.com, February 2025 (2023 Vintage)
"The 2023 Te Muna Road Vineyard Pinot Noir is powerful but framed within an ethereal structure of ductile tannin. The fruit is eminently red, and the wine feels elegantly integrated at all levels. It's a lovely expression of Martinborough, and it manages restraint and measure at every opportunity. The acidity is fine and saline, the balance is there and the oak merely supports. There is a savory herbal nuance through the finish, but it all works. Recommended."

5 Stars & 95/100 Bob Campbell MW, The Real Review, April 2023 (2022 Vintage)
"Elegant wine with raspberry, dark cherry, mixed spice and subtle spicy oak characters. Supple, silken-textured pinot noir that is seductively easy to appreciate. A vibrant wine with impressive purity."

93/100 Mike Bennie, The Wine Front, May 2023 (2021 Vintage)
"A juiciness and plushness here. A bit of that old come hither feel. Black plum, black olive, some warmth and woody spices from the frying pan, some choc-currant characters and the finish is woody spicy and cinnamon dusted. Feels quite bold for pinot, a fuller flavoured but not fuller figured thing happening. Chalky tannins here too. Brooding pinot noir, character filled and enjoyable for a dryer version of the variety."

5 Stars & Number 1 Cuisine Pinot Noir Tasting, April 2023 (2020 Vintage)
"Deeply coloured in the glass with aromas of black cherries and plums and sweet savoury notes against just a hint of dried herb on the nose. The expressive palate is rich with juicy dark fruits, lively acid and sapid silky tannins which carry through all the way to the long, satisfying finish."

Rated Excellent & 93/100 Cameron Douglas MS (2019 Vintage)
"Vibrant and very youthful fruit centric bouquet with a varietal lift including aromas of dark plums and black cherry, red apple skin then plenty of French oak spices and wood smoke suggesting clove and vanilla pod, a whisper of nutmeg then dark roses. Nicely complex with plenty of youthful energy. An equally firm youthful texture with fruit and wood flavours that mirror the bouquet. A mix of fruit and wood tannins with top line of acidity form a powerful foundation for the fruit to rest within and on. Well made and a lengthy finish offering great drinking from late 2022 even early 2023 through 2030."
