Wine Description:
A blend of Malbec, Syrah, and Viognier from two vineyards, this red blend comes alive in the glass with dark blue and black fruits and a heady floral character. Dense yet drinkable, the oak supports the fruit wonderfully, adding plushness. Millton Winery, the southern hemisphere's oldest biodynamically run winery, pioneered sustainable winemaking long before it was trendy. Founded in 1984 by James and Annie Millton, they were told they were crazy for growing grapes organically. Today, their 'Crazy by Nature' range pays homage to those naysayers, showcasing the trailblazing spirit and exceptional quality of their wines.

Wine Expert Note:

The Millton Crazy by Nature Cosmo Red is a unique and intriguing wine combining the winery's commitment to organic and biodynamic practices. This red blend offers a harmonious blend of different grape varieties, resulting in a complex and well-balanced wine. On the nose, the Cosmo Red displays vibrant aromas of ripe dark fruits, such as blackberries and plums, accompanied by hints of spice and earthiness. These aromas are further enhanced by subtle floral notes, adding an elegant touch to the overall bouquet. The palate of this wine is rich and full-bodied, with velvety tannins that provide a smooth and luxurious mouthfeel. Flavors of black cherries, blackcurrants, and a touch of chocolate unfold on the palate, creating a delightful and indulgent experience. The wine's well-integrated acidity adds freshness and liveliness, balancing the richness of the fruit flavors. The finish is long and lingering, leaving a lasting impression of dark fruits and a subtle hint of oak. The Millton Crazy by Nature Cosmo Red is a wine that can be enjoyed now, but also has the potential to age gracefully, allowing its flavors to further develop and evolve over time.

Crafted in Hawke's Bay region of New Zealand from a single vineyard, this wine is made from several Bordeaux varieties, which is not surprising, as Hawke's Bay is famous for providing excellent conditions for these grapes and producing well-known New Zealand red blends. The winemaking process involves careful selection and gentle handling of the grapes. The fermentation and further maturation in oak (for 12 months) takes part separately for separate blocks, and only after the maturation the final blending is completed. The Navigator is known for its elegant, but bold style, offering a harmonious balance of fruit, acidity, and tannins.
