2004 Blake Family Vineyard Redd Gravels Merlot
2004 Blake Family Vineyard Redd Gravels Merlot

The last offering of this rare NZ Cult wine. Mark Blake, the owner of this unbelievably brillant label has pulled out of the NZ market and we have the last of these valuable treasures for sale from his cellar. Only four vintages were commerically released and when the 2005 vintage won the top wine in a tasting of Gimblett Gravels vs Bordeaux ( which included Lafite and Mouton Rothschild ) the wine world was stunned and the 'Cult' label was born. 94/100 from Bob Campbell who writes "Rich, dense red with a velvety texture and backbone of very fine tannins. Ripe berry and plum flavours with spice and classy oak. Great potential but accesible now."
