Merlot Cabernet

What the press say …..

2008

4 stars Best Value “Fragrant with hints of spice … a silky texture and mellowed complexities. It's a harmonious wine, nicely balanced, a pleasure to drink.”  - Charmian Smith, Otago Daily Times, NZ

“Two years in oak barrels has added depth and complexity to this stunningly good value red.  It has hints of potpourri with medium tannins, sweet ripe black cherry, spice and liquorice. Yum!”  - Phil Parker, Urban Living Magazine, NZ

2006

4 stars  “... from Pegasus Bay winery at Waipara, North Canterbury, offers black-currant, herb and dark chocolate flavours, rich and smooth. Grown in Marlborough and barrel-aged for two years, it is generous, savoury and complex, delivering fine value.”  - Michael Cooper, Listener, NZ

4 stars  Best Buy “Fresh, vibrant, juicy and excellent value. How can you go wrong? The rich, ripe berry aromas intensify in the palate where they are met by quite grippy tannins and a lovely fruit/oak integration. Opulent and a touch spicy it has a long, clean, rewarding finish.”  - Tizwine.com, NZ
