Reviews
Cable Bay Awatere Valley Rose 2025
Marlborough
Pristine and delicately expressed — the inviting bouquet shows pomegranate, crisp apple, and lemon zest aromas. Juicy and lively in the mouth with a linear flow and vibrant acidity, making it mouthwatering and fabulously appealing. At its best: now to 2027.

Cable Bay Estate Chardonnay 2021
Waiheke Island
An arresting, perfumed nose of sandlewood, sweet balsamic and amber. The palate is structured and youthful, showing very good concentration of heritage apples and citrus flowers seasoned with subtle spicy oak. Long saline acidity provides balance and shape. An elegant, driven chardonnay in the modern style, this will gain weight, nutty complexity and more earthy spice with time in bottle. 2025 - 2035.

Cable Bay Five Hills Merlot Malbec 2021
Waiheke Island
A captivating bouquet of dark berries, especially plum and blackcurrant, followed by chocolate and five spice. Some smoky wood and earthy notes add complexity, along with a top note of violets. Delicious on the palate - fresh, concentrated, dry and youthfully taut - a wine that will age well. Flavours of dark berries, chocolate and plums continue, as do the violet and spice notes. Best drinking from 2028 through 2035+..
