Esk Valley Winemakers Reserve Merlot Cabernet Sauvignon 750ml

This wine is a blend from grapes grown on the stony soils of the gimblett gravels. the vines in the cornerstone and nearby ngakirikiri and twyford gravels vineyards were planted in 1990, 1992 and 2000 respectively and cropped at low levels to produce grapes of the highest possible quality. intensive viticultural practices such as shoot, bunch thinning and leaf plucking were employed over the course of the growing season to further maximise the vineyards’ potential.
