Mullet Wines South Australia Merlot 2023 - 6 Bottles

Product Description

Winery Background
Mullet Wines is a celebration of fun and flavour, where good times meet quality winemaking. True to the brand’s playful spirit, this Merlot is crafted to be generous, smooth, and effortlessly drinkable — a wine that doesn’t take itself too seriously but still delivers big on character.

Vineyards and Vintage Conditions
Fruit was sourced from vineyards across South Australia, where warm days and cooler nights allowed Merlot to ripen fully while retaining freshness. The 2023 vintage was long and even, producing grapes with plush fruit flavours, fine tannins, and natural balance.

Winemaking Process
Grapes were harvested at optimal ripeness and fermented in stainless steel to preserve vibrant fruit character. A touch of oak maturation added subtle spice and softness, rounding out the wine without overshadowing its juicy core.

Tasting Notes
Deep crimson in colour. Aromas of ripe plum, red berries, and dark cherry mingle with notes of cocoa and gentle spice. The palate is soft and rounded, offering generous fruit flavours, velvety tannins, and a smooth, easy finish.

Food Pairing
Perfect with wood-fired pizza, roast pork, pasta with tomato-based sauces, or a midweek cheese platter.

Story Behind the Wine
Like the mullet haircut, this Merlot knows how to strike a balance — smooth and polished upfront with plenty of fun in the finish. The 2023 vintage is approachable, juicy, and versatile, making it the kind of red you’ll want to share at any occasion.
