Plenty of acidity & a balanced, even finish
Cameron Douglas, MS
Description
Boysenberry, Chocolate, Oak
"Ripe, varietal and fruity bouquet with aromas of plums and red berry fruits, a seam of steely minerality then violet and clay follow. Nice weight and tension on the palate with moderately firm tannins, plenty of acidity and a balanced, even finish. There’s a tartness to the finish before the core fruit flavours fold back in again. Overall well made and ready to drink alongside food. Ideal drinking from mid to late 2025 through 2028" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Mar 2025
This full-bodied Merlot sourced from the esteemed Gimblett Gravels is opulent with plum, blackberry and blue fruits with dark chocolate and toasty oak notes.
Food Pairing: Velvety textured, succulent with a hint of leather, this wine can be enjoyed with Venison, plum sauce, and purple potatoes.
