Destiny Bay 'Mystae' 2022, Waiheke Island

An opaque core of vibrant dark purple and ruby pink rim, plenty of stained tears - all leads to a bouquet of concentration, power and complexity. Scents of stony baked clay soils then new wood laced with dark spices and smoke, dark berry fruits of blackcurrant and plum then sweet bell-pepper, chocolate and boysenberry. On the palate a dry full-bodied expression with a core of black fruit flavours in concentration and power, the oak and earthy qualities return with an equal level of power and impact. An abundance of finely textured tannins and definitive acid line frame the core flavours well. A wine that will age well over the next 10-20 years with best drinking from today or best from 2029 through 2040+.
