JULES TAYLOR MARLBOROUGH SAUVIGNON BLANC 2024

"Intense and pungent, powerful and refreshing bouquet of passionfruit and red apples, mandarin peel, crisp green pear, nettles and cape-gooseberry. As soon as the wine touches the palate I am salivating with plush, ripe fruit flavours that reflect the bouquet, there’s a fresh herb quality, a salinity and fresh basil herb suggestion. Delicious and ready. "

CAMERON DOUGLAS, MASTER SOMMELIER

93 POINTS

JULES TAYLOR JULES ROSÉ 2024

"a brilliantly focused palate offering fine texture and lively acidity. It's mouth-watering and crisp-dry, offering fabulous drinking. At its best: now to 2026."

SAM KIM, WINE ORBIT

91 POINTS

JULES TAYLOR PINOT GRIS 2024

"Complex nose with layers of subtle pear, smoke, flint and earthy minerality. The palate is medium-bodied, dry and serious with lightly chewy phenolics framing the subtle fruit which holds through to the finish. Currently quite closed, it will unfurl in a year or so to deliver spicy complexity."

STEPHEN WONG, MASTER OF WINE

94 POINTS

JULES TAYLOR MARLBOROUGH CHARDONNAY 2023

"Gorgeously styled and elegantly complex, the enticing bouquet shows ripe stone fruit, grapefruit, brioche and hazelnut aromas, followed by a finely flowing palate that's succulent and richly textured. Wonderfully composed and harmonious with a persistent, satisfying finish."

SAM KIM, WINE ORBIT

5 STARS

JULES TAYLOR ON THE QUIET SAUVIGNON BLANC 2022

"A highly characterful, mouthfilling, sweet-fruited wine, generous, savoury and complex, with layers of flavour and a rounded finish. It's drinking well now."

MICHAEL COOPER

94 POINTS

JULES TAYLOR ON THE QUIET PINOT NOIR 2023

"Once again Jules Taylor shows her proclivity for making fine wine with this example. Aromas an flavours of dark plum and balck cherry fruit set against a backdrop of barrel spice, baking spice and stony mineral qualities. A dry wine touches the palate briefly before the flavours and textures of baking spice laced red berry fruits race to the fore. Fine polished tannins and acidity set the structure of youth firmly in place. Well made (naturally) with best drinking from 2026 through 2033+."

CAMERON DOUGLAS, MASTER SOMMELIER
