Giesen Estate Hawke's Bay Merlot 2024
A generous, smooth Merlot from the Hawke's Bay wine region. A Merlot with perfumed plum, spice and delicious notes of mocha, a delectable smooth and supple wine.
Fruit for our Giesen Estate Merlot comes from the Hawke’s Bay wine region on the East Coast of the North Island which is known for producing rich, plummy Merlot.
Our fruit is selected predominantly from vineyards in the Bridge Pa area and gives us ripe fruit flavours, texture and a beautiful deep, dark colour.
After selective harvesting, fruit was immediately taken to the winery and transferred to red fermentation tanks. A short cold soak was undertaken to build mouthfeel and colour, followed by a hot ferment to maximise flavour.
The wine was matured on a blend of French, Hungarian and American oak for six months.
We use warmer ferments to maximise colour and flavour.
The wine sits in French oak for 10 months, a mix of one to five year old barrels, of which 20% are new.
