Tasting: NZ Recent Release - September/October 2019

Region: Waiheke Island

Review/Comments
Set for the long haul, this fragrant, youthful red is a blend of cabernet sauvignon (72%), merlot (23%) and cabernet franc (5%), matured for 18 months in French oak barriques (62% new). Deeply coloured, it is full-bodied and fresh, with generous blackcurrant, plum, spice and herb flavours, seasoned with nutty oak, excellent complexity, good tannin backbone and a lasting finish. $120
