Hawkes Bay, New Zealand

Redmetal Basket Press is a legendary Hawke's Bay wine - with a cult following.

Only produced in exceptional vintages (and 2021 was exceptional), Basket Press is vinted from Redmetal’s finest Merlot and Cabernet Franc fruit. Winemaker Grant Edmonds has pulled out all the stops with the 2021 and it's in stunning form. Drinking well now but lay some down and watch the magic unfold.

Tasting Notes

The winery writes "Ripe black plum flavours with hints of chocolate and licorice along with fine, soft tannins and a touch of oak. A classic Merlot based red from a very warm vintage that will reward cellaring for a decade or more."

This is seriously special stuff. Think Black Doris plums. Think chocolate coated cherries. Think Christmas spice. Then stop thinking and grab a bottle.
