Squawking Magpie The Chatterer Merlot Cabernet 2020, Gimblett Gravels, Hawkes Bay

Aromas of blackberry and blue fruits, dark plums and baking spices of clove and dark vanilla pod. Smoky barrel scents and stony earthy qualities add complexity and depth. Fragrant and very enticing. Full-bodied on the palate with flavours of dark berries and plums, spice and toasty barrel all reflect the bouquet. Bold tannins and medium+ acidity drive through foundation and mouthfeel. Violets and a gun-flint layer round out a delicious overall palate. Well made and ready to drinking from late 2022 and through 2030.
