Merlot grown in a vineyard 24 miles inland from the Pacific Ocean was picked in September 2017, following a hot and dry growing season. Deep in colour with spicy balsamic aromas, some green leaf and a slight smoky note, flavours of plums and black treacle emerge with a savoury edge on the finish. It was matured six months in French oak barrels.
