From the pioneer of Waiheke wines this 2004 vintage is drinking beautifully now or will age for the next 5 years or so. The nose on this wine is very European in character. It's not just your typical new world Bordeaux blend but has great expression from dark fruit to something a little more interesting. The layered nose is an indication that this is a serious wine, the mineral, fruit, earth aromas lead from nose to palate perfectly. This wine is the archetypal Bordeaux blend from NZ.
Although these wines are said to age 20 years I would have to say with the approachable nature of this wine it'll last for the next 5+.
