Vintage: 1999
Varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah
Area: Hawkes Bay
Winemaker: Paddy & Tim Preston
Alcohol%: 19
Powerful and concentrated, this distinguished wine is deeply coloured, with rich, blackcurrant-like, slightly chocolatey flavours, oak complexity and a backbone of firm soft tannins. Delicious now, it will mature well for many years, acquiring ever-greater mellowness and harmony.
Cuisine Tip:
Superb with cheese or steamed chocolate pudding.
