This Black Label Merlot is displays delicate aromas of spiced fruit, plum, and blueberry with layers of chocolate and sweet spice. Soft and elegant with spiced fruit characters, generous weight, and good length of flavour with a sweet oak finish.

The fruit for this wine was sourced from vineyards in South Eastern Australia. The climate is hot with high evapouration rates and generally low rainfall, making irrigation essential. The climate is also continental, resulting in long sunny days and noticeably cooler nights. Long sunshine hours ensure fruit ripens fully and low relative humidity results in little incidence of disease.

This approachable, full-flavoured wine derives from fruit sourced from various dry and irrigated vineyards was harvested at night. The grapes were fermented for a period of seven days. After fermentation, the wine was matured in stainless steel tanks and oak prior to final blending.

Rich, generous and approachable, the McGuigan Black Label range is your contemporary guide to Australia's most popular wine varieties. Whether it be a refreshing Sauvignon Blanc, a full-bodied Chardonnay or Australia's #1 selling bottled red wine McGuigan Black Label Red, every bottle of McGuigan Black Label is packed full of varietal flavour, proving that you need not be a connoisseur to enjoy the wine of your choice for any occasion.

Food Pairing: The soft velvety texture of Merlot makes it a great partner for a range of dishes featuring red meat, pork, and chicken.
