Description
The 2023 Guardian Peak Merlot is a balanced, medium bodied Merlot with mulberry, plum, and toast on the nose. Soft tannins enhance the juicy fruit on the palate, with cherries and plums accented by notes of sage and liquorice.
This Merlot was vinified in a combination of open and closed top stainless steel fermenters to preserve the fresh fruit flavours. After fermentation, the wine was transferred to seasoned French oak barrels for a further 6 months.
Food pairing: A great partner with pizza, bolognese and stews.
Alcohol: 13.84% ABV
