This impressive Merlot is sourced from vineyards on the Limestone Coast of South Australia, known for their slow-ripening, cool climate conditions. Despite being medium-bodied, this wine is bursting with flavor, showcasing classic cooler vintage Merlot characteristics of dark berry fruit and plum. It exhibits bright colors and a youthful taste.The palate offers plushness and a tight, fine tannin structure, with fresh acidity bringing everything together. Red and black fruits dominate, accompanied by subtle notes of leaves and chocolate that linger on the long finish. This wine is a true delight, offering deliciousness in abundance.
