Te Mata Estate Coleraine Red 2019

Cherry, ripe raspberry, dried roses and tobacco, cocoa and baking spices, a wee bit of menthol. It’s medium-bodied, taut and tightly strung with ‘mineral’ feeling cranberry acidity, sheets of slate-like tannin, a superb waft of mouth perfume, and a firm finish of impeccable length. A whole lot of what you might call ‘discreet structure’ this year, and feels particularly long-term. Oh Coleraine, you’ve done it again.

This bottle is the standard 750ml. If you are looking for the Magnum 1.5L bottle, you can find it here.
