Moana Park RESERVE Merlot Malbec 2020

Price: $18.99

PERFECTLY BOTTLE AGED, GENUINE RESERVE LEVEL HAWKE'S BAY RED $14.99!!!

FIVE STARS 93/100 | Sam Kim, Wine Orbit - "Beautifully weighted palate that's succulent and supple"

Finding genuine Reserve-level Hawke’s Bay red for under $15 has become something of a blue moon event – which is exactly why we were so excited to get our hands on another parcel of this superb Moana Park Estate Reserve Merlot Malbec. With 93 points from Wine Orbit, the quality credentials are firmly in place. But one taste tells you everything you really need to know: this is not a wine that tastes like it was made to sell for $14.99.

Beautifully presented in sleek burgundy bottles and drawn from the exceptional 2020 Hawke’s Bay vintage, this small-batch blend delivers considerably more wine than its $14.99 price tag suggests. Generously weighted and silky smooth, it’s loaded with ripe dark fruit, savoury complexity, liquorice and delicious choco-berry richness, finishing long, plush and satisfying. With six years bottle age, it's drinking wonderfully now.

Stock up while you can - this comes with our highest recommendation.

Tasting Notes

Sam Kim, Wine Orbit writes "Richly ripe and inviting, the bouquet shows blackcurrant, dark plum, toasted almond, game and warm spice aromas, leading to a beautifully weighted palate that's succulent and supple. Wonderfully supported by silky texture and finely pitched tannins, making it flavoursome and sturdy with a lingering, delectable finish. At its best: now to 2030."

The winery writes "This dark garnet wine shows aromas of chocolate, coffee and boysenberry. Rich and opulent with supple tannins."
