Kenzie River Flow Merlot Cabernet Franc from Dave Mackintosh in Hawke's Bay flows with elegant fusion grace, blending 83% destemmed Merlot from organic Paritua's free-draining red metal gravels with 17% carbonic whole-bunch Cabernet Franc on ancient riverbed loams beneath Raukawa's limestone hills. This wild-fermented gem, plunged gently then aged eight months in puncheons, bursts unfined with low-sulphur purity, a chillable Kiwi Bordeaux dream of restrained La Niña finesse.
