Mills Reef Elspeth 'One' Gimblett Gravels 2020, Hawke's Bay

This blend of Syrah, Merlot and the Cabernets delivers a bouquet of complexity, ripe purple and blue fruits, a core of youth and power and enticing sweetness of barrel and wood smoke. Black currant and cassis, milk chocolate and blackberry, toasted nut and wood smoke qualities. Delicious on the palate with a powerful core of dark skinned fruits from plums to blackberries then cacao and baking spices of barrel. Tannins are abundant, firm and textured and in combination with acidity delivers a youthful squeeze and promise of development if cellared. A lovely example with ripeness and texture, great drinking from 2025 through 2035.
