Description
The quality of the 2012 harvest is brought into the limelight with the Ara Resolute. Plush plum, wild raspberry and spice lift the nose. On the palate, the wine displays a refined tannin structure
that belies the succulent, inky density of the fruit. A fine acid backbone provides length, line and purity. Enjoy the wine now, or cellar for ten years.
Birthplace: In the heart of Marlborough wine country
The purest distillation of Ara’s brand philosophy yet, Ara Marlborough wines have been hand selected from grapes across the Wairau Valley, finely crafted to offer a balance between the renowned Marlborough fruity vivaciousness.
