Soljans Estate Tribute Merlot Malbec 2018, Hawkes Bay

blank-premium.png

Aromas and flavours of vanilla and toasty wood spices leading to dark plums and blackberries then suggestions of chocolate and wood smoke. Weighty with a full-bodied attack, plenty of acidity and youthful tannins that require time to soften. Fruit flavours return offering contrast and balance. Overall a well made wine needing cellar time or decanting to be enjoyed with excellent food. Best drinking from 2023 through 2030.
