Father's Day Pack
Red Pack NV 2.3l

Meet our top Merlot blend, the ’Kokoro’ meaning ‘the patriarch’ in Maori. This special wine named as a tribute to the father figures in our family, might be the perfect gift for yours. 

As a limited-time offer for Father’s Day, purchase a bottle of the Kokoro 2019, and Kokoro 2020 and we’ll throw in a complimentary bottle of The Family Merlot blend 2017. (due to the way pricing appears on WCD the bottle cost of the Family 2017 is subtracted from the total pack cost)

Kokoro 2019

A merlot-dominant blend with cabernet sauvignon and cabernet franc. Moderately dense red with blackberry, blackcurrant/cassis and raspberry fruit flavours together with wood smoke and mixed spice flavours. Good cellaring potential.  Drinking 2023 – 2033

96 Points NZ wine of the week  – Bob Campbell MW

A fresh and vivid red with redcurrant, hibiscus and lemon-rind character. Medium body. Fine tannins. Bright finish. Juicy. Merlot with cabernet sauvignon and cabernet franc. Drink or hold.  93 points  James Suckling 

Kokoro 2020

‘A beautifully crafted red with blackcurrant, chocolate and violet aromas and flavors with very fine tannins and just a hint of sandalwood to the fruit at the finish. Medium-bodied with well-integrated tannins. A blend of merlot, cabernet sauvignon and cabernet franc. Drink after 2026, but already gorgeous’.

96 Points – James Suckling

The Family 2017

93/100 – Bob Campbell MW 92/100 – Cameron Douglas MS

“Supple, textural and quite complex red with red berry, dried herb and hazelnut flavours. It has a pleasing texture, with typical Waiheke richness and weight. Very accessible now but should develop well with bottle age.” – Bob Campbell MW

“Quite a captivating bouquet with aromas of plums and blackberry, tobacco, dried herb and baking spices. There’s a primary complexity and charm. On the palate – a medium+ weighted wine with a firm texture from tannins and acidity then contrasted by a core of fruit and flavours of tobacco and herb that reflect the bouquet. Well made and still showing youthful energy – so best enjoyed with food, I suggest cheese. Decant for service with best drinking from today through 2026.” – Cameron Douglas MS
