Description
Almond, Chocolate, Spice
"It's ripe and fragrant on the nose, showing dark plum, sweet cherry, thyme, cumin, and toasted almond characters, leading to a silky-smooth palate offering juicy fruit flavours with spicy nuances. Well rounded and supple, making it immediately appealing. At its best: now to 2027" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jan 2025
The Hãhã 2023 Hawke’s Bay Merlot is smooth, juicy, and seriously good company. This one’s all about easy charm and quiet confidence — think ripe blackcurrant and raspberry with a touch of coffee and spice on the nose. The palate is velvety and lush, packed with dark berry fruit, soft tannins, and a lick of cocoa. It’s rich but relaxed, with a long, rounded finish that knows how to stick the landing. Whether it’s barbecue night or dessert o’clock, this Merlot’s got you.
Food Pairing: Perfect with barbequed meats, or go full treat-mode with a rich chocolate dessert.
