Colour This great ambassador for Yarra Valley Merlot is captivating to the eye, deep red in colour with beautiful clarity.

Aroma Delicate on the nose with the plum and cherry aromas will develop finesse.

Palate The palate is round with overtones of small berries and spice. Aged in French oak, the definition is clearly from a cool region in a ripe year giving the wine good complexity and excellent balance. The tannins are soft and gentle giving it a velvety mouth feel and freshness.

Cellar Great drinking for the next 5 years.
