Tasting Notes

At release the wine is a deep red colour.

Lifted aromas of spice and plum with subtle oak interplay.

Fleshy and medium bodied with plum fruit flavours surrounded by a touch of vanilla and coffee that is rounded out by a smooth soft finish.

This is what I call an “everyone-everywhere” wine…the sort of wine that is just right to drink for “everyone-everywhere”!! Soft and smooth this is one of those wines that is so drinkable it screams “just one more glass”!

Screw cap. A round, fairly rich Merlot of excellent quality. It is full bodied, ripe and lightly oaked in flavor (plum, cassis, herbs, wood), with good balance, and a medium length finish. Excellent value. 14% [2019-2020]
