Hope Estate Merlot

Notes - Warm plum red colour. Aromas of stewed plums and chocolate with herbaceous mulberry leaves. 12 months fermentation in American oak has provided this Merlot with spicy cinnamon and chocolate flavours, whilst 30% French oak fermentation has contributed warm cedar and vanilla characters. Ripe stewed plums are complemented with blackcurrants. Serve with antipasto, roast lamb, and pork or lamb-based Asian cuisine. Hope Merlot is drinking well now, however it will continue to develop flavours over the next 5 years.
