About this product
Dry, Medium Bodied style of MerlotBarossa Valley, AustraliaThis wine shows lifted aromas of ripe stone fruit with very interesting cassis, & vanilla notes. A charming balance of cherry, plum and spice characters on a firm framework of powdery tannins, leads to beautifully lingering dark chocolate notes, which show the true vinosity of fine Merlot from a cooler vintage. Enjoy now or cellar 8 – 10 years.

The wine is attractively fruited and delightfully expressed on the nose showing dark plum, spiced cherry, game and anise characters with subtle dried herb complexity. It is juicy and beautifully rounded on the palate with silky mouthfeel and fine-grained tannins, making it very easy on the palate. At its best: now to 2022.
