Single Vineyard Hawke's Bay Merlot Malbec 2014

This dark, rich Single Vineyard wine has met its match in Eugene's Toffee Glazed Lamb Belly. The ripe tannins with pure dark fruit flavours are complimented wonderfully by the savoury spiced lamb and subtly sweet toffee glaze. Delicious!

From the Winemakers:

“This new world Bordeaux blend displays the best of both varieties. The Merlot gives bright red fruit upfront and the Malbec adds dark smoky undertones that adds depth, with a tannin structure that tightly binds the two varieties together.”
