Gimblett Gravels is a particularly fine spot in New Zealand's Hawkes Bay for producing Bordeaux Blends and Syrah. This dried-up riverbed is a deep gravel bed with low water retaining properties, perfect for making rich, concentrated reds.
Trinity Hill was the first winery to plant on the Gimblett Gravels in 1993, and to this day, it is one of the benchmark producers for this subregion.
After tasting all their Gimblett Gravels reds, we selected this one, The Gimblett Bordeaux Blend, and the Syrah,
This blend is 54% Cabernet Sauvignon, 43% Cabernet Franc, and 3% Tempranillo.
We love its Bordeaux-beating style, packed with ripe blackcurrant notes, together with dried herbs and subtle leafy, spicy notes.

The Country
New Zealand
Brits have fallen in love with the wines of New Zealand. The affair probably has much to do with the colonial heritage, but it also has a great deal to do with the excellent, benchmark wines that are produced here. The story must begin with Sauvignon Blanc, but certainly doesn’t end there. Since the 1970s the region of Marlborough has become the go-to area, perhaps in the world, for bright, crystalline ‘Savs’ which gave the French something to think about. But now, it is becoming as equally famous for its Pinots, which are now beyond just being less expensive alternatives to Burgundy, instead showing regional characteristics, from the dark cherry and spice of Central Otago to the brawn and dried herbs of Martinborough.
A special mention goes to the Chardonnays of Kumeu River of Auckland, as these are some of the most remarkable wines from this variety in the Southern Hemisphere.
