Paritua Stone Paddock Scarlet Hawke's Bay Red Blend 2019
- Subtle oak
- Red currants & blackberry
- Oak spice & cedar
- Ripe tannins
"Beautifully ripe and fragrant, the wine shows blackcurrant, dark plum, thyme, toasted nut and rich floral aromas. The palate delivers excellent weight and bright fruit intensity, wonderfully supported by fine texure and polished tannins. Flavoursome and highly enjoyable. A blend of Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon & Merlot. At its best: now to 2030" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, May 2022
"A blend of cabernet franc, cabernet sauvignon, and merlot aged in old oak. Gently aromatic and moderately rich, with dark berry, dark chocolate and mocha flavours. A nicely structured wine that is accessible now but promises to age well" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Jun 2022
"Youthful, dark fruited bouquet with scents of fresh Doris plums and chocolate, olive and tobacco, blackberries and marmite. Vibrant, fresh and enticing. Fleshy textures then firm tannins and acidity touch the palate first, flavours of dark plums and blackberry fruits, tobacco spices, clove and vanilla. Plenty of weight and texture cushioned by fleshy fruit flavours and textures. Well made, dry and lengthy. Best drinking from 2024 through 2034" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Feb 2023
"Deep, full, ruby-black, lighter on edge. The bouquet is free, gently filled the glass with blackberries, cassis and plums melded with cedar, spice and smoky earth hint. Full-bodied, bright on the palate, blackberries, cassis and plums aromas interweave smoke, cedar, spice and savoury elements. Fine-grained, smooth tannin structured and reflects smoke, lingers to a long, dry finish; the succulent fruit has a savoury quality supported by lively acidity. This approachable red blend possesses ripe fruit enriched by cedar and smoky barrel details" Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Reviews, Jun 2022
This blended red is a prime example of the style produced from the stony soils of Hawke’s Bay. Highly scented black and red currants, blackberry and cassis aromas with hints of liquorice, cedar and fine spicy oak. The palate shows dark fruits dominated by blackcurrant and blackberry, a rich full flavoured mid palate supported by firm, ripe tannins, for a long and sumptuous finish. The oak influence is subtle and provides spicy notes and great structure. This wine will continue to age gracefully for several years. Ideal drinking from 2021 till 2026 or beyond.
The red varieties are planted on free draining red metal soils. The vines are managed with an open canopy to provide good airflow and exposure to sunlight. All the canopies are single cordon spur pruned.
All fruit is destemmed and crushed to closed fermenters. Some cold soaking takes place before ferment and fermentation is for approximately 10 days with regular pump overs to optimize extraction of colour, flavour and tannin. Daily assessment of flavour and structure determines when we press. The must is pressed when maximum flavour is achieved. We then keep each batch and variety separate during barrel maturation for up to 12 months. The wine is blended and fined and then filtered just prior to bottling.
