Merlot vines thrive in the well-drained soils of the Vinemount Ridge, and the extended summer of 2011 has created a wine of great character. Under the careful tutelage of our master winemaker Mauro Salvador, yields were kept low to ensure the highest quality. Ruby red with garnet reflections, this wine is rich with fruit – blackberry and blueberry, with hints of spice and tobacco, supple and warm with a lingering chocolate finish.
