What the winery says about Mills Reef Elspeth Trust Cabernet Sauvignon 2009 . . . . 

This distinguished Syrah was grown in our four hectare Trust Vineyard in the highly acclaimed Gimblett Gravels of Hawkes Bay. The Vineyard design embraces high planting density with extremely low yields per vine, in the pursuit of ultra premium wines. This elegantly styled red has intense blackcurrant and spice flavours, with aniseed, coffee and chocolate notes. The palate is seamless, with integrated supple tannins, harmonious oak, lingering fruit and a warm spicy finish.
