Hand harvested and selected for quality to get a ripe, balanced Merlot from the very finest soils, influenced by the cool S/E wind during the ripening season. The wine was matured in selected French oak barrels for 12 months prior to bottling.
Hints of coffee, blackberry fruit flavours and a softness of tannin for soft early drinking.
Serve with meat dishes, grills and lamb. |
