Mystery Hawkes Bay Merlot Cabernet 2016

Description

"The wine offers splendid fruit purity and complexity on the nose showing Black Doris plum, blackcurrant, vanilla, cedar and mied spice notes. It is succulent and wonderfully rounded on the palate delivering bright fruit intensity and silky mouthfeel, backed by fine-grained tannins. Beautifully balanced and soothing, this is elegant yet intense with layers of delectable flavours" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Feb 2019

This wine is deep in colour with a layered fragrant nose of ripe plum and cassis with lifted vanilla, cedar and tobacco notes. The palate has a rich velvet texture with excellent structure, ripe black fruits and cassis flavours with a long full finish. Great cellaring wine for up to 10 years.
