Winery Notes (2025 Vintage)
"Fragrant aromas of blackcurrant leaf, tomato stalk, crushed pea pod, and tropical fruits. The palate is vibrant and precise, bursting with fresh, crunchy fruit and herbal notes. A flowing texture leads to a lingering finish of juicy fruit and subtle saline tones.

Established in 1984, Te Kairanga is an important part of the Martinborough wine story. Our home vineyards are planted on land that was originally owned by the founding father of Martinborough, John Martin. While our land is steeped in history, our winemaking is very much focused on the future.

With four vineyard sites in the Martinborough appellation, our winemaking team have a wide array of aromatics, flavours, textures and styles to work with. The Martinborough Terrace, one of New Zealand’s most coveted winegrowing sub-regions, is home to our Home and McLeod Vineyards. Once a riverbed, it features deep ancient gravel and alluvial soils. At slightly higher elevations with more extreme conditions are our Spring Rock and Rua vineyards. Our vineyards are sustainably farmed.

Under the direction of Chief Winemaker, John Kavanagh, our winemaking philosophy places a premium on the character of each vineyard. Made from parcels from our cooler fragrant Rua vineyard and riper Home Vineyard, the fruit was gently pressed on arrival and fermented in stainless steel to maintain a clean, fresh flavour. A small portion was fermented in old French oak to add extra texture and complexity to the wine. The wine was racked, blended, and stabilised gently."

5 Stars & 93/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, July 2025 (2025 Vintage)
"It's beautifully scented on the nose, with aromas of Granny Smith apple, lemongrass, green rockmelon, and lemon peel. The palate delivers terrific fruit purity and intensity, splendidly supported by saline texture and bright acidity, finishing long and mouth-watering. At its best: now to 2028."

91/100 Cameron Douglas MS, October 2025 (2025 Vintage)
"Vibrant, textured, very fruity and fresh with flavours of lemon and apple, tropical fruit highlight and a nice core of minerality suggesting wet greywacke. Crisp and just-dry with a core of ripe fruit, a backbone of acidity and flavours that repeat. A wine ready for summer with best drinking from day of purchase through 2027."

Te Kairanga sits at the heart of Martinborough’s wine story, its vines rooted in the very land farmed by town founder John Martin in the 1880s. Revitalised in the 1980s by a new generation of pioneers, the estate continues to realise the potential of this special site. Pinot Noir is the beating heart, complemented by small, characterful parcels of Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris and Riesling that showcase the region’s cool-climate abundance. Once a place known for sheep, Martinborough became a magnet for the wine-curious—and Te Kairanga embodies that spirit. Winemaker John Kavanagh moved here specifically for Pinot Noir, guiding wines that are detailed, site-true and unmistakably Martinborough.
