Mills Reef Winery Reserve Gimblett Gravels Merlot 2023, Hawke's Bay

Ripe, varietal and fruity bouquet with aromas of plums and red berry fruits, a seam of steely minerality then violet and clay follow. Nice weight and tension on the palate with moderately firm tannins, plenty of acidity and a balanced, even finish. There’s a tartness to the finish before the core fruit flavours fold back in again. Overall well made and ready to drink alongside food. Ideal drinking from mid to late 2025 through 2028.
