Awatea Cabernets/Merlot, Hawke’s Bay — 2018 – Wine Advocate – 93 Points
93 points
“The 2018 Awatea Cabernets Merlot carries on the theme of the 2015, 2016 and 2017 Awateas: balanced, chewy and spicy. The thread of fruit laces through all four vintages, sometimes red, sometimes black and always succulent. This is a slightly darker version of the others, perhaps in line with the 2015.”
