Description
Our 2016 Merlot exhibits beautiful colour—dark ruby close to opaque. Effusive, forward, and enticing aromas draw you in—wild berry, ripe plum, thyme, and vanilla combine to form the complex nose. Bold and expansive berry and spice flavours are supported by a firm tannin and acid structure that will support this wine for many years. Fresh, vibrant and pure, this youthful wine has the grip that announces this is serious stuff! t.
