Kennedy Point Red Trumpet 2019, Waiheke Island, Auckland
A blend of French west coast varieties present aromas of dark berries and tobacco spices, plums and sweet green olive, a touch of gun flint and sea salt, barrel spices and blackberry. On the palate - youthful with a firm grip contrasting core of ripe red fruits that reflect the bouquet, dry with plenty of weight and lovely mouthfeel on the finish. Barrel flavours and tannins, smoky oak, dark chocolate and a gun flint , graphite-like flavour. A very young wine still needing some significant cellar time to harmonise and relax. Will be great when this eventuates. In the meantime serve with food and decant if before 2024 opening.
