Rich, earthy aromas of black olives and plum jam mingle with cinnamon and fruitcake. Seductive flavours of redcurrant, plum and mocha are tinged with a vibrant raspberry acidity and wrapped up in a soft, smooth tannin structure that is elegantly finished with spicy French oak.
Medium bodied red wines have a lightly textured mouthfeel with moderate flavour impact. Often medium in colour.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.

Merlot of merit. Briary herb and sweet spice notes, almost into dry tobacco, weave through plum and mulberry flavours of good dimension. Toasty/smoky oak gives an appropriate/well managed boost. Smells and tastes good.
