Passage Rock Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2021, Waiheke Island

A captivating and complex bouquet filled with scents of blackberries and clove, tobacco and iron filings. There’s also a dark leather, light boot polish quality, smoky wood and plenty of toasty barrel smoke. Full-bodied and richly textured as the wine touches the palate, flavours of blackberry and roasted plums, clove and sweet vanilla coat the palate. An abundance of tannins with polish and texture add complexity and length, acidity perfectly weighted and placed adding texture and freshness. A lovely wine, still developing, but also ready to drink. Best from 2027 through 2037.
