The 2019 Guardian Peak Merlot displays bold black and red fruit on the nose with cassis, juicy plum, purple figs and bramble. Soft ripe fruity flavours follow on the palate with
attractive vanilla, liquorice, and velvety tannins. Medium bodied with a gentle savoury finish, makes this an anytime wine.
Food pairing: A great partner with pizza, bolognese and stews.
Alcohol: 13.85% ABV
Very Limited Stock!

string(366) "The variety which made Château Pétrus in Pomerol famous, however it can undoubtedly be considered an international variety which is almost as ubiquitous as Cabernet Sauvignon. Merlot is a generous, plush and fruit forward variety which often acts as the foil in Cabernet led blends. As a single varietal it offers red stone fruit flavours and often a velvety core."
