The Wine
Trinity Hill is the result of a chance meeting of Robert and Robyn Wilson, owners of London restaurant Bleeding Heart, with winemaker John Hancock. Convinced they could together make world class reds in New Zealand’s Hawke’s Bay, Gimblett Gravels in particular, they started planting in 1993 and expanded further in 2000. Even with their first release 1997 vintage they won Trophies. And today they have a worldwide reputation for an amazing array of grape varieties and styles – from this Tempranillo to the classic Bordeaux blend and experimental varieties like Arneis. John is a winemaker with 35 years’ experience in the Rhône, Burgundy, Australia and New Zealand. Part aged in oak, this red is delicious now with pork or tapas Kiwi style!
"Aromas of warm raspberries, spice cake and tar over hints of tobacco, tea leaves and vanilla"
