Oyster Bay Merlot (Hawkes Bay

We had to go out of our way to find the best place to grow Merlot. In the Hawkes Bay we discovered perfection. New Zealands warmest grape growing region. From its abundant, clear sunlight and ancient soils comes a Merlot that excites the senses with its fragrance, softness and elegant fruit intensity. Aged in French oak barriques to impart complexity, the heroes in our Oyster Bay New Zealand Merlot Red Wine are always freshness of ripe fruit, spice and soft tannins on the palate. A wonderful Merlot red wine perfectly crafted to accompany any special moment. Oyster Bay Merlot Red Wine features bright cherry aromas and rich plum with subtle spice and a soft lingering texture. It pairs perfectly with rich Italian-inspired dishes and red meats. Enjoy upon release, or cellar for two to three years.
