Tribute Hawke’s Bay Merlot | Malbec 2019

Our Tribute Merlot | Malbec tells the heritage story of three generations of Soljans.  

In 1932 Bartful Soljan planted the first Soljan vineyard in New Zealand. Frank and Tony Soljan followed in his footsteps, and today we are proud to have over 80 years of winemaking knowledge in producing this wine.  

Beautifully balanced by a hint of cedar spice from nearly two years of aging in our French oak barrels, fine-grained tannins bring the wine to a lovely finish, allowing the Malbec to truly shine in this 2019 vintage, enhancing its brightness and ensuring excellent longevity. 

With notes of blackberry, cherry, and plum, we love our Tribute Merlot | Malbec paired with an aged cheddar platter or red meat dish and of course surrounded by family.  

For a limited time, we are including our Tribute branded gift boxes featuring the Tribute three generations logo and Tony Soljan’s signature for all online orders!
