5 Stars / 95 Points - Martinborough Vineyard Manu Riesling 2016
scored by sam kim
This is a gorgeous riesling, offering lifted aromas of mandarin, white stone fruit, rockmelon and lemon curd on the nose, followed by a succulent palate that is flavoursome and comforting. The wine exhibits outstanding balance between subtle sweetness (14 g/l) and seamlessly integrated juicy acidity, making the wine flow beautifully to a lingering, gratifying finish. At its best: now to 2026.
5 Stars / 94 Points - Martinborough Vineyard Te Tera Pinot Gris 2016
scored by sam kim
This is fabulous and delectable, offering ripe pear, floral, nectarine and subtle spice aromas, together with richly weighted palate that is rounded and plush. The wine is immediately appealing and delivers lovely fruit purity, leading to a superbly long, silky finish. Wonderfully harmonious and satisfying. At its best: now to 2019.
