Vintage Information
The grapes, at picking, had deep purple loose bunches and immediately displayed the trademark peppery flavour found in our Merlot. Upon crushing the grapes, perfumes of young plum and tobacco notes exuded from the crush.
This Merlot should develop rich, luminous and smooth rounded textures over the next few years when placed on oak.
Serve With
Aussie lamb, with a paprika wine marinade, grilled BBQ capsicums and a freshly tossed garden salad.
Cellaring Information
Enjoy this wine now or mature to in your cellar for many years.
