Paritua 2020 Stone Paddock Scarlet, Hawke’s Bay $24.99

Why I chose it:

- Terrific red at a modest price

- Demonstrates the value of mechanical sorting

- Terrific wine from an excellent vintage.

- Potential to develop well with bottle age.

- A blend of merlot, cabernet sauvignon and cabernet franc.

What does it taste like?

- Intense, almost chewy red with cassis, dark berry, dark chocolate, dried herbs, cedar, vanilla and nutty oak. Good cellaring potential - needs time to mellow.

Why it’s a bargain:

- Great wine at a great price

Where can you buy it?

- Vino Fino (Chch) $20.99

- Advintage, Hawke’s Bay $23.99

- Regional Wines, Wellington $24.99

Food match?

- Fillet steak, most red meat dishes.

Will it keep?

- Yes. 5-10 years, possibly more if stored well
