  • 2 x Top NZ Wines of 2025

    By

    Te Mata Estate is immensely proud to have not one but two wines named among James Suckling’s Top 20 NZ Wines of the Year – a rare honour in the world of fine wine! Coleraine Cabernet Merlot 2023 and Elston Chardonnay 2024 sit alongside some of the most celebrated wines in the country, marking a moment of recognition that reflects decades of dedication, vision, and craftsmanship. For any winery, placement in this list is a remarkable achievement; for a single estate to appear twice in the Top 20 is very uncommon.

  • Five Stars for Coleraine ’23

    By

    ‘Breed, rather than brute power, is the hallmark of Coleraine, estate-grown in the Havelock North Hills and matured in French oak barriques, predominantly new. This notably graceful red is a blend of cabernet sauvignon (80%), merlot (15%) and cabernet franc (5%). Dark and purple-flushed, it is mouthfilling with dense, well-ripened blackcurrent, plum and spice flavours, oak complexity, and a finely structured, very harmonious finish. Best drinking 2030+ (13.5% alc/vol).’ Michael Cooper, The Listener 2025

  • NZ’s First Fine Wine Estate

    By

    Te Mata Estate sits beneath the Te Mata Peak in Hawke’s Bay, a place where New Zealand wine history is unusually tangible. Founded in the 1890s, the estate is often described as the country’s oldest winery – yet that claim is frequently misunderstood.

  • Bob Campbell MW – Bullnose ’20

    By

    ‘Deep, purple-tinted syrah with a wonderfully fine-grained, perfectly-pitched texture. Flavours include cassis, plum, dark berries, anise, black pepper, floraland red rose together with spicy oak. A very impressive wine.’

  • Huon Hooke – Coleraine ’20

    By

    ‘Very deep, bold, bright purple/red colour, the aromas similarly impressive for their concentration and vibrancy. A sensational cabernet blend, gorgeously flavoured and perfumed, profound and lingering.’

  • ‘A Reason to Toast 2020!’

    By

    Read how 2020 was reported: ‘The start of a new decade in Hawke’s Bay brings momentous promise this vintage … With a hot and dry season, the entire region basked in optimum sunshine hours this summer…’
