Villa Maria Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot 2014

Editorial Review by Gregory Dal Piaz:

A bit flat-smelling with carob and wood toast notes over dusty fruit. In the mouth this is a bit matte and quite tannic, with nice purity to the black currant fruit that has a bit of a hard edge to it. The finish is a bit austere if long, with a slow-to-emerge sweet edge to the black fruit. This may very well just need more time in the bottle. 86pts

Extremely smooth and silky in texture, this elegantly crafted wine features aromas and flavors of cedar, sassafras and chocolate, with some berry fruit showing through on the finish. It's not a big, sturdy wine, so pair it with something more delicat... Wine Enthusiast. A Proprietary Blend wine from Hawkes Bay in New Zealand. 2006 Villa Maria Merlot-Cabernet Private Bin 750ml
