Mission Estate Reserve Merlot 2023 750ml

The aromas are bright and fruit driven with characteristic plum and berry. There is a very attractive spicy element from the high tight grain oak from selected French oak forests. The oak is in balance and respects the wine’s structure and character. The palate is intense and full with firm tannins which will become silky with time. The wine is balanced and velvety; a result of much dedication and precision in the vineyard and winery.

This is a harmonious and complex Hawke’s Bay single vineyard Merlot.
