Trinity Hills, Gimblett Gravels, Tempranillo 2022

Tasting Notes:    The 2022 Gimblett Gravels Tempranillo delivers the richness, generosity, and structure one expects from the variety. Attractive raspberry/blackberry aromas, along with liquorice, sweet spices, and dark chocolate, lead to a palate crammed with red/black fruit flavours. Chalky tannins with the consistency of cocoa powder, and vibrant acidity, contribute a mouthcoating texture and juiciness to the palate, which finishes long, succulent, and refreshing.

Sam Kim    Wine Orbit    94 Points    Wonderfully fruited and fragrant, the wine shows Black Doris plum, blueberry, cedar, warm spice and rich floral aromas on the nose. The palate displays excellent weight and beautifully layered mouthfeel, splendidly framed by finely infused tannins. Harmonious and flavoursome with a persistent velvety finish. At its best: now to 2032.

About Trinity Hill:    In 1993, having recognised the outstanding potential of the Hawkes Bays Gimblett Gravels winegrowing district, Trinity Hill became one of the region's early pioneers, planting grapevines on a barren plot that continues to produce exceptional wines today.
