A silky ball of delish, this is a great Merlot from Parker Coonawarra Estate. Complexity, length, structure - what else do you need?
Off the famed Terra Rossa soils, it sees 10% new French oak for twelve months.
Merlot can be green and stringy at times but not here. Bay leaf and tobacco waltz with blackberries and blackcurrants. Soft ribbons of spice add further detail. A wine with impressive shape and flow, it's looking tops at this stage and time in the cellar will only elevate the experience. Great stuff!
Drink to eight years+
93/100
