Peacock Ridge Merlot 13.5% (2022)

Soft, supple Wild Yeast Ferment Merlot from Peacock Ridge. Generous dark fruit character which very definitely new world but with a natural character and structure which is quintessentially Merlot and makes for a very interesting glass of red at this price point. Deep, dense and youthful colour with aromas of cassis, cedar wood, smoke and herbal notes. On the palate the Peacock Ridge Merlot is elegant and evolved with upfront dark black fruit, a touch of crushed rocks, mocha, liquorice and tar, balanced by fine yet seductive tannins. Weight, concentration and a long complex finish.
