Trinity Hill Gimblett Gravels The Gimblett 2016

Tasting: NZ Recent Release - July/Aug 2019

Region:

Year: 2016

Price: $40.00

Review/Comments
Well worth cellaring, this is a deeply coloured Hawke's Bay blend of cabernet sauvignon (43%), cabernet franc (41%), merlot (14%) and malbec (2%). Barrel-aged for 16 months, it is fresh and mouthfilling, with pure, youthful, blackcurrant-like flavours, hints of berries and spices, savoury notes adding complexity, and excellent concentration, delicacy, structure and length. Best 2022+. $40 (UK, US)
