More information on wine critics and ratings

This wine was grown on the Barton Vineyard, Huangarua Road, Martinborough from 24-year-old vines.

A combination of deep alluvial gravels which the Martinborough Terraces are renowned for and a blend of many clones grown in a very sheltered spot always rewards with a classic example of New World Pinot Noir. It has a unique site derived complexity combined with black cherry/plum fruit flavours.

James Suckling (JS) : 94 Points (2020)
Beautifully transparent with complex aromas of violets, cranberries, mulberries, morels, rosemary stems, rotisserie and oyster shells. Tight and very fine tannins alongside bright acidity support vibrant fruit and herbs. Refined and bright. Drink or hold.

Wine Spectator (WS) : 93 Points (2020)
Robust and settled into its muscular, dense frame, this offers abundant red and blue fruit flavors, with toasted herbs, rose petal, fresh tobacco and loamy earth. All of the details fit together wonderfully, with strong-brewed Earl Grey notes on the finish. Drink now through 2030.

Wine Enthusiast (WE) : 94 Points (2019)
From 30-year-old, close planted vineyards in the Martinborough Terraces, Te Rehua is a spicy and highly aromatic wine. Vibrant red berries, cinnamon, white pepper, florals and a mushroomy, umami note burst from the glass. The palate is elegantly framed, and the juicy fruit reigns, even amid structured, savory tannins. Drink now.

Robert Parker (RP) : 92 Points (2019)
The perfumed, floral 2019 Te Rehua Pinot Noir features scents of rose petals, red raspberries and tea leaves. Medium to full-bodied, it's wiry on the palate, with ample concentration and firm tannins, accentuated by bright acids. The finish ends up being taut and slightly astringent, in need of cellaring to reach its best.
