 Vintage: 2004
Varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon / Merlot
Area: Hawkes Bay
Winemaker: Paddy Preston and Tim Preston
Alcohol %: 14


Tasting Note: This classic Hawkes Bay wine is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon 55% and Merlot 45%. Showing excellent colour, enticingly dark and fragrant, it is rich and spicy with strong blackcurrant and plum flavours over a backbone of nutty oak.
A highly complex wine with substantial body, finely handled French oak and full bodied with a foundation of ripe fine tannins. A benchmark Hawkes Bay wine with obvious cellaring potential.
