Omaha Bay Vineyard Matakana Petit Verdot (2015)

Deeply coloured, the 2010 vintage (4.5*) was matured for over a year in barrels (50 per cent new). Fleshy, generous and supple, it has strong blackcurrant, plum and spice flavours, with hints of dark chocolate and nuts, in a tightly structured style, developing good complexity. Retasted in 2015, it’s maturing very gracefully.
