2007 Te Mata Cape Crest $30 (★★★★★) is sublime and then some. Delicious toasty notes on the nose combine with elderflower, freshly milled timber and crushed herb characters all followed by a burst of white peach and lime and finished with harmonious, honeysuckle-like loveliness. Delicate and minerally with a seam of coconut and lime pannacotta running through the middle, the shiny new 2011 however is destined for greatness (if you’re disciplined enough to pop it away somewhere cool and dark and away from your pesky, persuasive friends that is) www.temata.co.nz
