Te Mata Coleraine 2024

100 POINTS - Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
"This is a masterpiece... It’s perfectly proportioned and gracefully powerful, combining scintillating fruit purity with seductive complexity."

In the realm of fine wine, Coleraine is Te Mata’s crowning jewel – a cabernet sauvignon that embodies the essence of the variety’s title: The King of Grapes.

Aligning with the 130th vintage of Te Mata Estate, and widely regarded as the finest expression yet. There is a striking new precision in this vintage—tannins of architectural clarity, a luminous core of fruit, and an effortless sense of balance that elevates Coleraine into truly exceptional territory.

This is a wine where heritage, place, and instinct are immediately evident. Coleraine ’24 carries its power with poise, structured yet refined, composed and unmistakably elegant. More carved than blended, every element speaks with precision, creating a wine of presence and longevity—one that will resonate strongly with collectors and command attention on the world’s finest wine lists. Coleraine is New Zealand’s greatest red wine.
