This could easily pass for a luxurious Pomerol from a fine vintage. Its fragrant, complex aromas of red rose, violet, dark plum, spice and forest floor lead to a mouth-filling palate, which is lush and full-bodied, with sustained depth and velvety texture. Abounding in flavours of black Doris plums and sweet, spicy leather, it is well-rounded and balanced, with fine, supporting tannins.

Common questions
Which Bordeaux wines are mostly Merlot?

Is Merlot sweet?
No. Merlot is a dry red wine. Its ripe, plummy fruit and soft tannins can make it seem smoother or sweeter than other reds.
