Merlot/ Cabernet - Main Divide - Canterbury - New Zealand

A deep ruby wine, with dark fruit aromas of blackberry, cherry and plum. Intertwined with this are hints of chocolate, liquorice and vanilla, along with savoury notes of wood smoke and spice. The mouthfeel is silky and succulent, with ripe tannins that provide balance and structure. The long hot summer has delivered a beautifully crafted, harmonious wine, displaying both power and finesse.
