Mystae Waiheke Island Red Bordeaux Blend 2007

A rare beast indeed, this Bordeaux style blend - from New Zealand! 55% Cab Sauv, 26% Merlot, 11% Cab Franc, 6%Malbec and 2% Petit Verdot - it's quite a crowded field.

Nonetheless, this is a great wine and '07 is just about ready for drinking.

Cedar wood and forest fruits on the nose; with a strong red fruit palette followed by wood and herbs and a long, consistent finish.

An absolute treat for Sunday roast, or a rainy Sunday afternoon!

Delicious. 20 months in Oak. Cab franc still dominant grape at 45% so a slightly different rendition than the old world. Oak, tobacco, dark fruit. Yummy — 7 years ago

Waiheke Island Rose 2015

I brought this bottle back from New Zealand all the way to NYC. Loved visiting the vineyard and this rosé was a favorite - fragrant aromas of strawberry and peach with a warm, fresh finish. It was perfect on this near 70° evening. — 9 years ago

Tipping the scales across the board, with high %, high acidity, high tannins and massive fruit, framed by loads of toasty oak. Elegant? No. Will I buy again? No. Impressive? Yes. — 10 years ago
