Pegasus Bay Merlot Cabernet 2021, North Canterbury
Richly coloured core of dark purples and reds with stains in the tears lead to a bouquet and palate youth, power and concentration. As the wine touches the palate there’s a distinctive flinty and reductive quality, this will dissipate as the wine ages in your cellar. Flavours of dark berries and plums, violets and blue fruits then layers of wood spices and smoke. Excellent tannin and acid line surround the core fruit flavours. There are many natural synergies between the fruit and wine maker’s touch. A wine that simply needs time to settle and begin to age, the integration is underway. Best drinking from 2028 through 2038+.
