Background
"The 2018 growing season had all the hallmarks of a classic vintage. Consistent
warm temperatures produced perfect conditions for our red varieties to ripen. This
along with good winter rains and a dry harvest period resulted in wines with great
depth of varietal flavours, excellent tannin structure and colour along with a long
balanced finish. Reds from 2018 will age well due to their intense concentration
and power."
Tasting Note
"A deep purple colour with rich plum and blackberry aromas, this Merlot is enticing
and perfumed in style. Ripe berries and Christmas spice are highlights on the
palate. Medium bodied and plush the wine finishes with long, smooth tannin and
complex, savoury oak notes." - Winemakers Note
