Merlot (19) Barrel fermented/barrel matured/wooded (staves, chips or wood rice) 2020 and older

Made in a medium-bodied style, with a profound and vibrant violet colour. A complex but elegant wine, with fresh red berries and cinnamon on the nose. Raspberries, sweet cherries and subtle hints of mint and vanilla unfold throughout the layered mouthfeel. The aftertaste reveals juicy blackberry on the palate, balanced by notes of plums, cassis and a refined earthiness, with rounded acidity and a silky mid-palate.
