This wine has a deep colour with strong red purple hues. The bouquet is strong and complex due to the distinct floral and ripe fruit, but sweet French vanilla oak. It has a strong mid palate of rich floral notes and smoky vanilla French oak but with soft elegant length on the finish. The flavours are complex with a blend of florals, berries and oak, not over ripe and porty but shows typical Coonawarra spicy berry flavour.
*What the critics think*
2007 – “Kym Tolley’s workhorse merlot has a light fruit nose and bright, up-beat red fruits, slightly confected with brightness and simple appeal. There’s a little herbal edge amid light tannins that run throughout the palate, making a more slightly serious impression than the nose suggests.” Rating; 91 points Nick Stock – The Penguin Good Australian Wine Guide - 2010
2006 –“Kym Tolley, take a bow! A masterfully delivered Coonawarra Merlot for under 20 bucks, showing attractive brambly blue fruits, some earthy aromas, a hint of mint, and barrel derived spice; it looks complex and complete. Very plush and bending in the direction of a charming St. Emillon with fine savoury tannins. Superb! “PENGUIN BEST MERLOT AND BLENDS” Rating 94 points Nick Stock – The Penguin Good Australian Wine Guide - 2009
