Merlot

This wine is a classic blend of Bordeaux varieties with classic flavours of cassis and dark cherry.

A versatile, supple and youthful middleweight red, with a ruby-purple colour and a nose of cassis, blackberry jam and grenadine. Tannins are ripe and soft, framing a juicy core of fresh berry fruit.

Plush red and black fruit flavours of strawberry, cherry and blackberry form the backbone, overlaid with notes of vanilla and green tobacco leaf. Soft, ripe tannins provide a great sense of volume.

A nose of fruitcake, spice and ripe, plummy fruit. Soft and rich on the palate, with blackcurrants, plum, and smoky cedarwood. Try with roast beef or goose.

The 2011 has rich bramble and damson fruit flavours with notes of graphite and cedar. Soft and velvety this wine is just entering its peak drinking period.

It not only represents amazing value it is a classic example of Pauillac with intense blackcurrant fruit flavours with fine notes of graphite and cedar.
