Mission Estate Jewelstone Antoine 2019, Gimblett Gravels, Hawkes Bay

Complex and enticing bouquet with a core of ripe dark red berry fruits, black berry and black currant, sweet tobacco, iron sand and smoky barrel. Complex textures unfold quickly as the wine touches the palate with firm, ripe tannins from barrel and fruit, floral sweet oak and violet, clove and vanilla and a dry stony core earthy quality. Lengthy yet youthful, a long finish, complex and dry. Offering excellent drinking from 2023 through 2030+.
