Grape Variety

Merlot

Producer

Vintex

An 80:20 blend with a cold soak and extended 28-day fermentation and maceration. It shows an opaque, deep-purple ruby appearance. A little shy at first, the nose then reveals aromas of lees, dough, vanilla bean, oak shavings and black plum reduction with notes of leaf and cedar. It is dry, has a medium acidity, a medium extract, medium fine-textured tannins and a medium body with lovely length and persistence of celery, mint/cedar, black plum fruit flavours with hints of dough and vanilla merging towards the medium-plus finish. 2024-2028–IR
