Description
Crafted by Hugh Crichton, who oversees some of the most incredible vineyards in NZ and then makes the wines in a winery that simply must be seen to be believed. No expense is spared in the making of the Elemental wines. The Stone representing their Gimblett Gravel stony vineyard. This Merlot dominant blend spent almost 2 years in oak of which 32% is new French oak. 2021 was a striking year, which shines through in the wine. Predictably the wine is a majestic expression with a richness and a velvety structure seldom seen in Hawke's Bay.
Smells
Intensely fragrant aromas of blackberries, cassis, plums, graphite, and leather.
Tastes
Big, rich, and densely flavoured, the palate is laden with dark fruit, blackberries, black cherries, and white chocolate and spice oak notes round it off. The tannins are succulent and grainy, playing a supporting role to the seductive fruit. A harmonious wine already, you can cellar with confidence through 2035+. Drink with your favourite cut of beef.
