Elephant Hill Hieronymous Red blend 2017, Hawkes Bay

Elephant+Hill+Hier.jpg

Made with Cabernets Sauvignon & Franc, Merlot & Malbec - this wine is fantastic! It’s immediately engaging, complex, a core of fruit and no mistaking the oak, but engages the senses in a seductive way. On the palate - flavours of blackberry and sweet olive, crushed dry stones and pencil lead, iron & hot steel, dark plums and dark chocolate. Bold, firm & ripe tannins with plenty of acidity provides a great foundation, toasty new French barrel flavours & dark spices. A truly enjoyable wine from aroma to palate - you will not be disappointed with this purchase. Decant for service with best drinking from 2023 through 2030+.
