About this product
This is an expressive Merlot, showing a fascinating combination of ripe plums, cedar and spice aromas. An inviting perfume of cinnamon and clove blends with blue fruits to give an exotic journey. Bursting with plum, blackberry, briar and cedar, evolving to enticing savoury notes from the French oak. The lovely acidity combines well with the expressive fruit and tannins.

From a vineyard in Wrattonbully's dress circle location, this is some of the region's highest quality Merlot. Fleshy sinew, plums, meaty nutmeg spice, cloves and cedar, with a toasty oak finish.
