More information about the product
WINERY INFORMATION:
Fermentation was carried out in a combination of static and rotary fermenters under warm temperature conditions for a period of six days. This creates a good balance between extracting the appropriate tannin for wine structure and retaining fruit drive and aromatics in the final blend. The wines were stored at 6°C post fermentation to retain natural colour and aromatics of the variety. The Oxford Landing Merlot vines have been strategically planted on well-drained sites to produce vines with low vigour. Careful irrigation control and management of the vineyard promotes well-balanced vine canopies, thereby maximising fruit quality.
TASTING NOTES:
The growing season delivered warm, dry conditions across much of South Australia. This, combined with careful vineyard management, has produced a vintage of outstanding quality and personality, reflected in this varietal Merlot. Magenta with purple hues, the Oxford Landing Estates Merlot displays aromas of blueberry, plum and red currants with subtle cedar oak and spices. This medium bodied wine starts with vibrant flavours of plum and red berries and although tightly structured, the finish is rich and generous with persistent fruit and spice flavours. Soft, velvety tannins are a feature on the palate. Suitable for vegans and vegetarians.
