Squawking Magpie The Nest Gimblett Gravels Hawke's Bay Merlot 2014

Tasting: Hawkes Bay - November/December 2020

Region: Hawke's Bay

Year: 2014

Price: $50.00

Review/Comments
This sturdy, surprisingly youthful red is a single-vineyard blend of merlot (86%), malbec (10%) and cabernet franc (4%), matured for 20 months in French oak casks (33% new). It has bold, bright colour and a fragrant, fresh bouquet, with a hint of herbs. Mouthfilling, with vibrant plum and blackcurrant flavours, showing considerable complexity, it's well worth cellaring to 2022 onwards. $50
