What the critics say

95 VMVinous, Rebecca Gibb, 14-05-2024

The 2020 Ngakirikiri is a perfumed, deep purple wine. It is richly fruited with its dark, ripe black fruits, Cabernet-induced herbal characters, black olives and licorice. Sweet and sumptuous, this is dense and impressive with abundant, ripe tannins. It's nowhere near ready to drink and is the Kiwi equivalent of a young Haut-Medoc.

Drink 2023 to 2035

90 WAWine Advocate, Erin Larkin, 13-03-2025

The 2020 Ngakirikiri feels much riper in its expression, although on the palate, the wine has all of the poise and focus of the 2019 tasted prior. These two wines make up two-thirds of a great trifecta of vintages in Hawke's Bay, across 2019, 2020 and 2021. In terms of purchasing and cellaring, these are three vintages to get behind. The seasons were dry and mild, although there was some seasonal variation in temperature. This is all dark fruit and berries, cocoa, resinous peat and tobacco. This wine is mostly Cabernet Sauvignon, with just 4% Merlot, matured in 45% new French oak (largely Demptos and Sigeau Moreau). This wine spends three to four weeks on the skins and 18 to 24 months in barrel, with up to two rackings during that time. The wines are blended to tank three months prior to bottling, unfiltered. 14% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.

Drink 2025 to 2035
