Review: Te Koko
Otago Daily Times, Charmian Smith, September 2010 (New Zealand)
5 Stars
“New Zealand’s finest sauvignon in a barrel-aged style, this is powerful and
complex, oozing butterscotch, lively melon, creamy hints of nuts and honey
with underlying minerality, a dry finish and a long aftertaste.”
Canberra Times, Chris Shanahan, October 2010 (Australia)
“Te Koko flaunts the region’s extraordinary ability with the variety... The oak regime contributes a rich texture and complex flavours, but the pungent varietal flavour soars above it. It will be the centre of attention wherever it’s served.”
Winestate Magazine, Michael Cooper, July-August 2010 (Australia/New Zealand)
5 Stars
“Delicious now, this fleshy, rich, fully barrel-fermented Marlborough wine
has concentrated, ripe, tropical fruit flavours, with a subtle seasoning of oak adding complexity, and a dry, well-rounded finish. Finely textured style.”
