What the critics say
92 WAWine Advocate, Lisa Perrotti-Brown, 30-12-2014
The 2011 Te Koko opens with sulfide notes of struck match and flint over a core of lemon tart, pineapple and pink grapefruit plus a touch of baking bread. Medium-bodied with a lovely satiny texture, it fills the mouth with classic barrel fermented Sauvignon fruit flavors supported by toasty accents before finishing with a great persistence of grapefruit pip and bitter almond-laced layers.

Bright, light straw-yellow. Complex nose melds lemon, green melon and pepper, lifted by high notes of gingery oak spice and quinine. Rich, broad, toasty and deep; distinctly spicy and different, and less easy to taste today than this winery's younger regular sauvignon blanc bottling. Not an especially fruity style but boasts an almost creamy texture, with sneaky acidity and piquant lemon zest and mineral notes giving the finish a firm edge and nicely buffering the wine's oak element. This does not appear to have quite the structure or grip of the best vintages of this bottling, which is fermented in barrel and aged for 18 months on its lees, then held back another 18 months prior to release. But it's still a singular wine, and it may yet merit a higher score with more time in bottle.
