Te Motu 2016, Onetangi Valley, Waiheke Island, Auckland

A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc presents a seductive and complex bouquet of dark red fruits, violets and layers of baking spices, smoky oak and stony core of minerality. Youthful, fruity, ripe, fruity, complex and dry on the palate. Flavours of plums and blackberry, clove and toasty barrel are supported by firm tannins, plenty of acidity and a sound structure for ageing. Lengthy finish, persistent complex. Best drinking from 2024 through 2034+. Decant for service before then and enjoy with food.
