Askerne Reserve Merlot/Cabernet Sauvignon/Malbec 2021

Hawke's Bay, New Zealand

★ 4 ½ - 92pts

Screaming with juicy dark berry fruit, blackcurrant and blackberry, dark cherry, chocolate, and cinnamon, with an underbelly of mushroom and leather. Smells divine!  Layered and spicy, with smoked meats and dark cherry and chocolate flavours; ripe, grainy, and woody tannins with a graphite edge frame the back of the palate, with a lifting acid line. Delicious and drinking beautifully now. Enjoy now - 2032.
