Pask Gimblett Gravels Cabernet Merlot Malbec 2020 750ml

Vintage Detail | After a spring with few frost events, the new year brought with it the long hot summer days and cool nights that Hawke’s Bay is known for. February saw no rainfall with very drying conditions in the lead up to harvest. Early ripening meant picking began at the start of April. An excellent vintage all round now paying dividends in bottle. Winemakers Notes | Harvested early April. Destemmed and then tank fermented with regular pumping over for colour, flavour and tannin extraction. French Oak maturation with regular racking for clarification and freshening this is a CMM in a classic Gimblett Gravels style with rich ripe notes and a lengthy finish.

 

Cameron Douglas MS 2024

93pts - Excellent | Wood smoke, dark spices and chocolate, dark berries of plum and blackberry then sunbaked stones encapsulate the bouquet. On the palate a firmly textured dry wine touches first then core fruit flavours of berries follow. The suggestions of chocolate and dark spices then toasty barrels flavours begin to develop. Firm tannins and medium+ acid line set the frame in place. A lovely wine that will be best enjoyed with high protein foods such as T-bone or excellent cheese. Best drinking from day of purchase through 2030. Great value

Deep purple in colour with intense berry fruits and lifted spice on the nose. This typical cool climate Cabernet blend is full bodied and classic. With blackcurrant, blueberry and boysenberry notes, a plummy backbone and fragrant earthy spice. Enjoy now or will certainly reward with careful cellaring. Cabernet Sauvignon providing lavender aromatic’s with drive and intensity on the palate, Merlot providing red fruit aroma’s and roundness and structure and Malbec with a hint of spice.

42% Cabernet Sauvignon Blanc, 35% Merlot and 22% Malbec
