Y Series South Australia Merlot 2024 - 6 Bottles

Product Description

Y Series Merlot is a vibrant red with generous fruit flavour, a rounded palate and soft tannins. The wine combines juicy red and dark fruit with subtle exotic spice, giving it a layered profile without relying on heavy oak character. Its fresh fruit expression and supple texture make the Merlot distinctly varietal, with a clean balance between fruit, acidity and tannin.

Regional Character

The fruit comes from South Australian vineyards, where Merlot develops ripe fruit flavours while retaining the freshness needed to give the wine definition and balance.

Winemaking Techniques

Y Series wines follow a minimal-intervention approach, with wild fermentation used across the range. This style of winemaking allows the natural fruit character of the Merlot to remain central to the finished wine.
