Mission Hawke’s Bay Cabernet Sauvignon (2009)

In favourable vintages, this red offers good value. The 2009 (3.5*) is described on the back label as ‘a robust Cabernet with pure fruit aromas’ – and rightly so. Deep and bright in colour, it is fresh and full-bodied, with very good depth of blackcurrant, herb, spice and nut flavours. Drink now onwards.
