The wine is closed to start then opens with lifted earth aromas with red roses, dark cherries, ironstone and dried herbs. The palate presents rounded dark fruit flavours with fine silky tannins. Drinking well as a young wine, it will continue to soften and develop complex secondary aromas in the next 5 years or more.

The challenge of blending the components of individually beautiful blocks is to try to make something more complete, more balanced and more complex. 96 pts, James Halliday Wine Companion, 2024

With its elevated setting in Red Hill and relatively steep north-east facing slope, Merron’s Vineyard has a strong personality and unique peaceful charm. With the vines now in excess of 20 years old, it seems like another nuance of fruit character appears with each season. 96 pts James Halliday Wine Companion 2023

The mild conditions on the 2021 season allowed riper flavours and balanced acid to occur at lower sugar levels. This meant that this wine has a more savoury flavour profile than the previous vintage. A classic vintage that will mature well into the medium term, developing more honey and biscuit notes with age.
