In 2006, Wither Hills Sauvignon Blanc 2006 was stripped of its five-star rating by Cuisine after scientific tests by the Institute of Environmental Science and Research revealed that the wine submitted for review was not the same as that available in shops. [1] The magazine's wine critic, Michael Cooper, said he was told that the magazine's publishers, Fairfax Media, would not be making public the reason for the reversal. He then went to The New Zealand Herald with the story, and his contract, which was to come to an end the following year, was terminated early. [2]
