Mills Reef Winery
Mills Reef Winery Reserve Merlot 2016, Gimblett Gravels, Hawkes Bay
G\fresh, plush, quite fruity and forward with aromas and flavours of dark cherry, plums and wild red berry fruits; a steely youthful layer adds complexity; a light floral note adding charm. Just dry with a silky smooth texture; mild to moderate tannins and acidity to match. Quite a lengthy finish, soft and easy to swallow. Drink now and through 2024.
