The Mills Reef ‘Reserve’ wines support the flagship ‘Elspeth’ range, but are made from low yielding vines to provide high quality fruit and balanced wines which can be consumed earlier. The Mills Reef team ensure there is no lack of varietal expression, and the flavour, structure and texture are in harmony. This approach has rewarded Mills Reef with good show awards over the years. The wines are deservedly successful. Here. I review the new release ‘Reserve' 2016 Cabernet/Merlot, made from Gimblett Gravels fruit. www.millsreef.co.nz
