Glazebrook was one of the first estate wineries in New Zealand. Since its founding in 1981, it has prospered for over 35 years. Glazebrook’s picturesque home is in the Ngatawara Winery, located in the Bridge Pa Triangle in New Zealand’s prestigious Hawke’s Bay zone on the north island. This area is known for producing assertively fresh Sauvignon Blanc. Vineyard management and cellar techniques are modern and deliberate, and focus on the clearest translation of grapes into wine with minimal intervention.
This is a simple yet approachable Merlot offering notes of ripe dark-berry fruit, chocolate and vanillin oak. The palate is full bodied and plush but the oak is on the clunky side, particularly on the finish.
