Why we love this wine:
Orange in NSW's Central West is renowned for its Merlot and this one is outstanding and fruit-forward, with a juicy mouthfeel and smooth finish - and we can barely keep it in stock at this price!
Winemaker / tasting notes:
Unlike a lot of Merlot, there is good aromatic intensity in this wine with plenty of character. Ripe fruit shows red berries, cassis, a hint of floral, almost Turkish delight & subtle cedar from oak maturation. A firm structure with fine tannins carries the flavors through to the finish. The balance is spot-on allowing for immediate enjoyment. Distinctly varietal.
