Oyster Bay Merlot (Hawkes Bay) 2006/2007 75cl Code: Country: Region: Category: Barcode: New Zealand Hawkes Bay New Zealand Red Wine 9415549814635 Description: The Hawkes Bay wine region is arguably the most exciting find in recent times for the cultivation of merlot in New Zealand. Ancient alluvial river terraces provide for a superb mix of soils over gravelly, free-draining sub soils, with an abundance of pure river water for irrigation. With a temperate maritime climate, the vines are warmed by strong clear sunlight during the day and cooled at night by the sea breezes of the Pacific Ocean. This is the unique environment in which merlot produces its vibrant, fully ripened varietal flavours. Essentially Oyster Bay Merlot is about elegance and intensity of fruit. The hero is always freshness of ripe fruit, spice and soft tannins on the palate. BUY 6 FOR £7.79 EACH.
