The Wine

Country of origin:

Australia

Region:

South Eastern Australia

Australian Merlot is often overlooked and sits down the pecking order, living quietly in the shadow of Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon, just doing its thing. And its thing is to deliver wonderfully juicy, plum-and-red-berry-laden grapes to award-winning winemaker, David King, to transform into the one of the most drinkable red wines out there. This Merlot is perfectly ripe, smooth and has a lovely, delicate, spiced edge with notes of plum, blackberry and vanilla.

"We love working with our Merlot grapes because they make our life as winemakers super easy. They arrive at the winery perfectly ripe and full of flavour! We just have to make sure we capture all that and bottle it." - David King and Frank Mollo, Winemakers.

A great red with good structure and fruit, but expected more from the grape and winery. An enjoyable red at a great price nonetheless
