WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
This exquisite Merlot opens with aromas of floral rose hip, tangy blood orange and rhubarb with a hint of blackberry, red pepper, and bay leaf. On the palate, a lovely soft entry with plenty of juicy, ripe red fruit is supported by complex, savory undertones. The balanced acid structure and young chalky tannins bring a pleasant freshness, leading to a focused, balanced finish.
TASTING NOTES:
This wine is concentrated and moderately complex, with earthy notes of coffee bean, dill and black pepper. The fruit is a contrasting mix of black currant and black cherry, with refined tannins and integrated oak that leaves a trace of baking spice.
