Babich Irongate Gimblett Gravels Cabernet Merlot Franc 2010 $35 ★★★★★
Intense red rose, berry and seasoned leather aromas open up to punchy plum flavours and a deliciously warming, medicinal mouthfeel. I love how poised and elegant this wine is, and the persistence of flavour is just outstanding. www.babichwines.co.nz
