Geoff Hardy Hand Crafted Merlot 2007
|

|
|
Merlot in the Adelaide Hills is often low cropping which
results in a flavoursome full bodied wine with good
colour.
A very attractive mix of red currant, cassis, plum and
spice lead an elegant medium bodied palate; soft fruit
tannins and time in French oak barriques provide perfect
length and texture that accentuate the varietal character
of this wine.
Although this wine is drinking superbly at present, if
cellared for then next 5-10 years it will develop
beautifully in bottle.
Enjoy with lamb roast or a venison pie.
*Tasting note provided by Geoff Hardy.
14% Alc/Vol
BK: Prominent berries on the nose and to taste, with raspberry the dominant character. Enjoyable wine. Fireside special.
MM: nose: marzipan and plum
palate: raspberry with a dry finish - pleasant.
TE: Stewed plum - wonderful oak/fruit balance - exciting merlot. The pick of the days selection.
