Esk Valley Hillside Malbec Merlot Cab Franc Syrah Hawke's Bay 2019

18.5/20 Joelle Thomson

Silver International Wine Challenge

Excellent & 94/100 Cameron Douglas MS. He said...

"Delicious and powerful full-bodied core with aromas of dark berries and chocolate, blackberries and plums, forest berries and baking spices of oak - clove and cinnamon, bacon and vanilla then tobacco. Equally full, rich and tasty on the palate with flavours that mirror the nose; firm tannins and youthful acid line and  stony earthy quality that layers in minerality and complexity. A bold expression with fruit, flavour, texture, power and intensity. Best drinking from 2022 through 2030+."
