Tasting Notes

Rembrandt Cabernet Merlot 2005: Blackcurrants from Cabernet, blended with the spicy, dry soft Merlot. The soil type and sunny conditions of Hawke's Bay provide an excellent combination for the production of a premium wine with rich flavours. A young garnet coloured wine with a soft berry bouquet and subtle spicy undertones. Soft tannins enhance this typical wine lovers blend. To be enjoyed with warm winter red meat dishes such as casseroles and pot roasts accompanied by new potatoes and rich winter vegetables.

Malbec Merlot 2006: A dark wine with the spicy, dry and soft taste of Malbec mixed with the berry fruit flavours of Merlot grapes. This warm soft wine, with subtle oak is made from the grapes of young vines planted in Hawke's Bay. Rich in colour with complex aromas, there is a touch of earthiness in the flavour. Enjoy with venison and game dishes as well as red meats and vegetables. |

Merlot 2004 & 2005: A light fresh Merlot with berry fruit flavours and a pleasant soft finish. A young soft wine from premium Hawke's Bay fruit with a hint of spice and berry bouquet.
