As a flagship, it has a delicate and complex aroma (black currant, blueberry, lavender and sandalwood) and a very good concentration. The wine is soft and firm, with a rich flavor, like a delicious cherry, and is well balanced against the background of spices such as star anise. This is a wine suitable for ageing, a collector's wine!
🍷 Destiny Bay Waiheke Island Mercerta, 2019, Destiny Bay Mystae Waiheke Island, Waiheke Island, 0.75L, 6/CT
★ A higher proportion of Cabernet (59%) was used to soak in French and American oak barrels (40% new) for 12 months. Balance is key in this wine, with blackberry aromas, crème brûlée-like smoothness and a long finish. It is the most cost-effective one in the author's opinion.
