    Life’s a beach. Chris and Jill Harrison have been living the dream in Hawke’s Bay since 1996 when they first started the Beach House label. Already with a love for wine, they met at winemaking college in Adelaide and fell in love with each other…and then Hawke’s Bay! They made the move across the ditch in the 90s and the rest, as they say, is history.

    This is their super popular Bordeaux blend red using 100% Gimblett Gravels fruit. Why so popular? Well, three back to back Trophy winning vintages will do that…

    2015 vintage – Trophy Champion Cabernet (Hawke’s Bay Wine Awards)
    2014 vintage – Trophy Champion Cabernet (Hawke’s Bay Wine Awards)
    2013 vintage – Trophy Champion Cabernet (Hawke’s Bay Wine Awards)

    Anyone that loves the Bordeax blend style will simply fall head over heels for this. It’s 38% Cab Sauv, 35% Cab Franc and 27% Malbec. It’s loaded with dark red fruits, cedar and spice. Gorgeously balanced, super smooth tannins and cellaring potential of up to a decade from vintage. What’s not to love?

    Usually selling for upwards of $30 a bottle (and worth it – read that track record again!) – these guys haven’t been immune to the impacts of Covid with the bar/cafe/restaurant and export trade taking a hit. Life’s a beach, sometimes it’s a bitch. They’ve reluctantly slashed the price of their prized Bordeaux blend red down to $19.99. Take advantage while you can.
