About this Wine

The 2011 Guardsman has a typical Cabernet Sauvignon nose with black currant and cedar notes. It has a depth and fine texture and a natural sweetness accompanied with fine tannins. Complex and enticing aromatics of sweet red fruit, baked earth and crushed red rose. Bright flavours of mixed red and black berries with touches of nutmeg, cardamom and cinnamon highlight the palate along with an intriguing subtle smoky note. The tannins are approachable and very elegant, carrying the flavour and structure well on the finish. Given its serious, fine structural tannins, the wine delights with a feel of satin in the mouth.

Wines of Hawke's Bay

The oldest wine producing region in New Zealand, Hawkes bay is located on the east coast of the North Island.

Hawkes bay is split into a few subregions, the most notable of these are Gimblett Gravels, Bridge Pa Triangle and Te Mata Special Character Zone. These subregions are known for producing some of the best reds in the country, particularly Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah. The top blends from these regions are on par with top level Bordeaux blends from around the world.

White wine is also produced in Hawke’s Bay, with Chardonnay in the lead in terms of volume with Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris and Viogner following behind.
