With the Glasgow Commonwealth Games kicking off with a bang this week, we're reflecting on some beautiful customer feedback we received all the way from Scotland a few days ago 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏆

So, we invite you to settle in with a glass of vino and the Games on in the background, and be inspired by this lovely story about a special te Pā moment for one of our happy customers:

"This isn't a complaint or a question—I just wanted to share a little story about what your w**e has come to mean to us.

We're in the middle of saving for our very first home together, and as anyone who's been through it knows, it means saying "not this time" to a lot of little luxuries. We've become very intentional with our spending because every penny has a purpose now.

But we've made one small exception.

te Pā.

Every so often, we'll pick up a bottle, and it has become our ritual. We put our phones away, put on some jazz, pour a glass each, and spend the evening simply being together. We talk about the home we hope to buy, how we'll decorate it, what our weekends might look like, and all the little dreams that suddenly feel so close.

It's funny how one bottle of w**e can become part of such a meaningful chapter in life.

The w**e itself is beautiful, of course, but it's become more than that for us. It's become something we look forward to, a reminder to slow down, celebrate the journey we're on, and appreciate what we're building together before we've even got the keys to our own place.

I don't know if w**eries often hear from people like us, but I thought you should know that your w**e has quietly become part of some of our favourite memories.

Maybe one day, when we're finally sitting in the backyard of our own home, we'll open a bottle of te Pā and laugh about all the evenings we spent dreaming about it.

Thank you for creating something that has become so much more than just a bottle of w**e.

Wishing everyone at te Pā all the very best from Edinburgh, Scotland."

Our team were so moved by this lovely feedback, and we wish Kerrie & Anita all the best on their home ownership journey. How good will that first sip of te Pā Sauvignon Blanc in their new home taste? 🏡🥂

And the good news is, uou can create your own special te Pā moment, wherever you are in life's journey! Find us in Scotland today, or use W**e Searcher to see a selection of stockists, worldwide: https://tinyurl.com/27d7v97n

Haysley MacDonald, the owner and founder of te Pā, recently spoke with Marianna Hunt, writer for Decanter Magazine in the UK, about his 'other passion' outside running a successful w**e and vineyard business: freediving for fresh kaimoana (seafood) 🐟🦞🌊

It's a great read that shows Haysley and his family's centuries long connection to the sea and land in the Marlborough region, as well as sharing how he is involved with protecting local fisheries for the next generation. And of course, he shares some of our favourite food pairings to go with our award-winning w**es 🥂

So, we invite you to sit down with a cuppa (or a glass of vino, if it's that time for you) and enjoy this fascinating new article highlighting why our story and w**es are so distinctive, delicious, and memorable.

We are delighted to share a beautiful new article in the major Summer Issue of Decanter Magazine (July 2026). Reaching over 2 million people every month across its print, digital, and social channels, Decanter is a long-standing and trusted source for w**e news, reviews, and profiles on the people b...

Our te Pā Reserve Collection 2023 'Seaside' Sauvignon Blanc is becoming one of our cult-classics 🌊🥂🏆

This sophisticated drop, grown just 160m from the ocean at the closest point, is receiving rave reviews from the world's leading w**e critics, and building a strong following of Sauv Blanc fans from Aotearoa-New Zealand, to the UK, Germany, to Vietnam, and China, who want something a little more refined and interesting than a standard SB.

And the Seaside Sauv has struck again, this time with a stunning 17 / 20 points from the famed Jancis Robinson w**e review team. A score of 17 means the w**e is deemed to be 'Superior', which we couldn't agree with more! Master of W**e and JR reviewer Julia Harding said of our Seaside Sauv:

"Rich passion-fruit aroma and flavour. Contrasting with the lightly salty freshness on the palate. Tastes dry, finely textured – dry finish. Mouth-watering and harmonious between fruit and freshness. Persistent and surprisingly youthful."

We're loving this review from one of the world's great w**e reviewers! Find us on W**e Searcher for global stockists, or get in touch directly if you'd like to list, stock, or import this stunning drop: www.tepaw**es.com/blogs/journal/new-reviews-on-jancisrobinson-com

W**E ENTHUSIAST EDITOR'S CHOICE 🏆

We're celebrating the success of our gorgeous te Pā 2024 Sauvignon Blanc Oke, which has just been awarded the W**e Enthusiast 'Editor's Choice' pick for the latest issue.

Editor's Choice w**es are carefully selected, and these w**es; "Are products that offer excellent quality at a price above our Best Buy range, or a product at any price with unique qualities that merit special attention."

Check out the stunning review and whopping 94 point score below:

"This oak-aged w**e, from unique, ultramaritime blocks owned by the Māori family, the MacDonalds, drinks more like a white Bordeaux than your typical Marlborough Savvy B. It’s nutty and smoky, with a mineral thread through the lemon and grapefruit. It all comes together on the palate where a rush of mouthwatering, salted, citric acidity is padded out by the creamier, toastier textural elements. With beautiful linearity and tautness, this should age gracefully for another seven-to-eight years. But why wait? It’s drinking deliciously now. Banville W**e Merchants. Editor’s Choice. —C.P."

In addition to our gorgeous Oke enjoying this critical success, we are so proud that our Koha Sauvignon Blanc was also awarded a 'Best Buy' award from W**e Enthusiast!

As well as being the Editor's Choice, our te Pā Sauvignon Blanc Oke was the highest scoring New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc in the whole tasting, so we are absolutely delighted with the result. We thank Christina Pickard and the W**e Enthusiast for the endorsements and aroha! Find this w**e in the USA, UK, South Korea, Japan, and soon... China. Available w**ery direct here in NZ.

The 21st of May is International Chardonnay Day, and as big fans of this famous varietal, we are only too happy to raise a glass of this delicious, complex, sophisticated drop!

Chardonnay is the most widely drunk white w**e in the world so we wanted to explore why Chardonnay is so beloved:

☀️ It fits the moment; Chardonnay is equally at home at a long lunch, elegant dinner, or a quiet glass at golden hour.

🍴It’s one of w**e’s great food partners; from fresh seafood like salmon, scallops, or prawns, to a classic roast chicken to creamy pasta and truffle, and fine cheeses.

🍑 It offers beautiful complexity, with layers of citrus, stone fruit, brioche and subtle oak, all balanced by freshness and texture.

Classic, versatile, and always sophisticated. Chardonnay never goes out of style ✨ Tag the biggest Chardonnay lover in your life so they know today's their day!

Tim Atkin is one of the UK's most trusted w**e personalities, with a dedicated following and widespread media presence.

The Master of W**e recently tasted and reviewed our gorgeous te Pā 2025 Signature Series Rosé and he enjoyed it so much, he gave it a fab 91 point score and made it one of his 'W**es of the Week'. Check out the delicious review below:

"A w**e for people who like a bit of colour in their rosés and are bored of the identikit stuff from Provence, this is an appealingly unusual blend of mostly Pinot Noir with 3% Riesling and 2% Merlot from Marlborough in New Zealand. Just off dry, it’s reminiscent of a Tavel from the Rhône Valley, with raspberry, pink grapefruit and red cherry flavours, a nip of tannin and more than enough acidity to lift and freshen the finish."

With another glowing endorsement in the bag, this Rosé is the perfect drop for the UK spring and summer season. Available exclusively in Co-op stores around the UK for just £10.25, this is one to try. Tag the Rosé w**e lover in your life so they can find this hot new drop! 🌹🥂🍓

91 points from W**e Spectator. Global recognition. Exceptional value🍷🌎💸

Our te Pā 2024 Pinot Noir has just been selected by W**e Spectator as one of the most exciting value-driven new release w**es from New Zealand, reinforcing what we believe great w**e should be: precise, expressive, accessible and well-priced.

Here’s what critic MaryAnn Worobiec had to say about our w**e in her latest feature, titled, "New W**es From New Zealand—Pure, Precise and Affordable."

She describes our te Pā 2024 Pinot Noir below:

"Offers an impressive mix of black cherry, plum and date-nut bread, with hints of bittersweet chocolate, black tea, star anise and fennel seed. Black licorice, forest floor and porcini notes linger. Drink now through 2037." 🍒🍫🍞🍂☕️

A powerful endorsement of our ongoing commitment to crafting delicious w**es that consistently overdeliver, and where quality, character, and value meet 🤝
