This is a quality Hawkes Bay Merlot blend from a boutique producer. Merlot loves the warm conditions here on the Gimblett Gravels, where it produces a rich and succulent red with fine, ripe tannins and real depth. A classic Bordeaux style and so satisfying in the glass, this is great value at such a low price.

Squawking Magpie is a boutique winery located in the renowned Gimblett Gravels wine-growing district of Hawke's Bay - synonymous with the production of world-renowned wines. The incredibly stony soils of the ancient bed of the Ngaruroro River and this warm location, create perfect conditions for ripe, full-bodied and gravelly-textured red grapes.

It all began in 1981, when founder Gavin Yortt, first planted vines in the region's Irongate Vineyard on Gimblett Road. Gavin was one of the three first growers in the Gravels.
Over 40 years later, Squawking Magpie has developed long history of producing outstanding wines. The portfolio is diverse, though it is their Reds - Syrah’s and Merlot/Cabernet blends - for which they are especially known, Stoned Crow Syrah 2019 & 2021 and The Nest 2022 being good examples.
