Black Cottage Merlot 2019, Hawke's Bay
Aromas of plums and black currant then soft brown baking spices of vanilla and cinnamon. A light violet and stony mineral quality adds breadth and charm. Equally fruity and charming on the palate with flavours of cherry and red plum, mineral and baking spices that reflect the bouquet. Easy tannins and plenty of acidity make this a smart choice for food pairing. Well made and ready to drink from 2022 through 2026.
