2011 Craggy Range Te Muna Road Sauvignon Blanc 2011 Craggy Range Te Muna Road Sauvignon Blanc
90 BC

Think juicy and tart green apple, lime, lemongrass, dried coriander, and mouth-puckering acidity. A most wonderful Sauvignon Blanc.

"Pale straw colour streaked with vibrant green hues. Aromatic, lime and nectarine fruit combine with flint, jasmine and dried herbs for an intense and complex bouquet. The palate's sweet fruited core is framed by citrus like acidity and gains textural interest via a chalky finish."

2010 Craggy Range Te Kahu Blend 2010 Craggy Range Te Kahu Blend
 
Still some tannins on the finish, all in balance with the dark, dried fruit flavors and hints of earth. Should age nicely for several more years. Pairs well with lamb, duck, and vegetarian moussaka.

"80% Merlot, 12% Cabernet Franc, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Malbec. Dark colour. Bold aromatics of black fruits. Boysenberry, blackberry and plum dominate the subtle varietal aromatics of fresh mint and thyme with some cinnamon showing from its time in oak. The palate is fresh and lively. Lovely fine tannins surround a ripe core of sweet fruit with good acidity providing balance and length. Food Match: Rich red meat dishes Cellaring: Up to 10 years from vintage."

2011 Craggy Range Kidnappers Vineyard Chardonnay 2011 Craggy Range Kidnappers Vineyard Chardonnay
 
A really wonderful, cool climate Chardonnay, bright and crisp with the barest hint of lemon and roasted nuts, this is your antidote to the flabby oaky butterball style.

"Pale straw in colour streaked with youthful green hues. Lemon zest, toasted almond, flint and chalk dust aromas meld for an enticing bouquet. The palate displays the winemakers craft - that is the tension and balance between the juicy, zesty core and the coastal infused acidity and freshness."

2010 Craggy Range Te Muna Road Pinot Noir 2010 Craggy Range Te Muna Road Pinot Noir
91 WS

Lovely and soft on the palate with fairly ripe red fruits, medium-bodied, good finish with some nice tannins.

"Bright aromas of cherry, raspberry, dried sage and a hint of smoke make for an enticing nose. On the palate the taut, focussed fruit tannin sits seamlessly in this medium weight wine with a silky savoury finish."

2009 Craggy Range Le Sol Syrah 2009 Craggy Range Le Sol Syrah
97 BC; 92+ WA; 93 WS

Oh wow, so intense, so layered, so wonderful. Give it loads of time to open and be very content with the results. Hints of pepper, dark purple core, cinnamon, fresh dirt, happy mouth. Great with red meat slathered with mushrooms, herb roasted pork, and duck sausages.

"An opaque black core with a dark garnet rim. Redolent with black cherry, blueberry, melted liquorice, wild thyme and, of course, black pepper. This is intensely flavoured with layers of fine ripe tannin. The flavours just go on and on. A remarkable vintage."

2010 Craggy Range Sophia 2010 Craggy Range Sophia
93+ WA

Wonderful nose of ripe red fruits, intense mocha, and fragrant wood followed by full-bodied flavors of bittersweet chocolate, earth, and perhaps leather. Really tasty and bound to evolve happily for several years. Wants red meat.

"Dark garnet core colour. Spicy notes of cinnamon and freshly roasted espresso beans combine with oak and herb notes of cedar and thyme to overlay a ripe blackcurrant base aroma. The palate exudes elegance via a balance of fine layered tannin and mid palate fruit presence. This wine has a soft texture on a mid weight frame, yet has immense length. Recommended cellaring 10-15 years from vintage."
