Sacred Hill Reserve Hawke’s Bay Merlot/Cabernet Sauvignon (2016)

Delicious young, the 2016 vintage (4*) was French oak-aged for a year. Full, bright and very youthful in colour, it is rich and flowing, with generous, plummy flavours, hints of herbs, spices and nuts, and fine-grained tannins. Best drinking mid-2018+.
