2017 | Wolffer Estate | Grapes of Roth Merlot

Dark black cherry in color. Wonderful fruit aromas of cassis, prunes, figs, blackberry jam, nice toasted sandalwood and fine liquorice fill the glass. The mouth-feel is rich and smooth with ripe fruit notes and elegant layers of ripe lush tannins. There are lovely dark chocolate notes and great structure from start to finish. The wine is in perfect balance with a pleasant earthy texture and classic minerality on the long, soft and warm finish.

Reviews:

• Wine Spectator: A polished texture carries balanced flavors of tart cherry, pomegranate, toasted hazelnut and espresso in this expressive red. Features firm, well-integrated tannins and lively acidity. Elegant.
