95 Points
Thursday, February 23, 2023 - Prof Lei - Best Collection of New Zealand (Newmarket, Auckland): 59% CS, 37% Me and 4% CF.
deep dark red/purple, clean and bright. surprisingly smooth and modest, tough it's just a baby. dense dark fruits, some oak, mild spices and tobacco, with a concentrated sweet core, firm but supple tannins, solid acidity, m+/full body, round and fine structure. savoury finish, which is long but quite plain, too young to judge fairly, though it performs very good already, it can be in cellar at least 20 years confidently.
a super classic NZ red blend, very good on complexity, density and finesse. could be the best vintage of Coleraine, BC 98, CD 97, SK 100
Ap 5/5, Ar 13/15, Palate 17/20, Overall 5+5/10
Total 95+/100
