The 2013 Coleraine comprises 56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 14% Cabernet Franc. Aromatically, the wine offers saturated purple berries with cassis, licorice/aniseed, raspberry seeds and dark chocolate. On the palate, it exhibits all the chalkiness that defines its success, making it feel both pliable and ductile in its texture, akin to the texture of raw cocoa (fine, powdery, chalky a little grippy/gravelly). It’s excellent. Lovely fresh acidity through the finish lifts it into the register of graphite/lead pencil. 13.5% alcohol, sealed under natural cork.

Country

New Zealand

As with nearby Australia, New Zealand has over the past century proven itself to be a superb location for producing high quality wines in vast amounts, with much of the cooler regions of both islands being used primarily for vine cultivation. New Zealand wineries are notable for their enthusiasm in regards to experimentation, and for utilizing modern technologies and methods to make the most of the imported grape varietals which flourish in the rich, fertile soils and oceanic climate. In recent years, it has been the New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc wines which have gained the most attention, as a result of their smoky character and ability to carry the mineral rich nature of the terroir they grow in. Changing consumer interests have brought about a considerable rise in the production of organic and sustainable wines in New Zealand, of which again, the Sauvignon Blanc varietals are leading the way in regards to excellence, flavor and overall character.

Region

Hawkes Bay

The beautiful region of Hawkes Bay in northern New Zealand is home to many of the country's oldest wineries, and is the birthplace of New Zealand's now enormous and important wine industry. Since the 1850s, Hawkes Bay has proven to be one of the country's most successful and widely renowned wine regions, with turnover increasing each year, and with its excellent quality, characterful and flavorful wines finding new fans all the time. The region is widely regarded as being the sunniest in New Zealand, and has a fantastic climate for viticulture. Indeed, the moderate humidity, low rainfall and blazing sunshine help the grapes which grow there flourish to full ripeness, and allow the resulting wine to be packed full of flavor and the finest features of the terroir.

The 2013 Coleraine has a seductive bouquet with blackcurrant, raspberry coulis and blood orange scents, beautifully defined with a little more panache and charm than the 2009. The palate has a satin-like texture on the entry, moderate depth, sleek and sensual with a plush but restrained finish that demonstrates real sophistication. Classy from start to finish, this is a beautiful Coleraine that will give many years' drinking pleasure. Tasted from a bottle shipped directly from the estate at the Coleraine vertical in London.

Winery Notes

A deep midnight-magenta, Coleraine is symphonic in its harmony and presence. The aromatics are immediately varietal with grace notes of cassis, raspberry leaf, fresh roses, dark chocolate, lifted black cherry, espresso and cedar. The palate deepens the opening theme. There’s tapenade, darkest blackberry and ripe plum while underneath, quietly, a precise, profound tannin structure resonates. Powerful, deep-set, graceful and complex, Coleraine is refined to an exquisite point while still retaining freshness and balance. It lingers after tasting. Layered and composed, resplendent and resolved, a gloriously seductive ensemble celebratory of all that fine New Zealand wine can be.
