Freycinet Merlot 2020

This is a wine with a story worth telling. The Merlot vines at Freycinet were planted by founders Geoff and Susan Bull in 1979. Some of the oldest in Tasmania and this 2020 vintage, crafted by the 2nd and 3rd generation of the family, is a tribute to that legacy. Rich plums, blueberries, and warm spices on the nose, with savoury herbs and subtle black olive adding complexity. Elegant and poised, with a structure that promises longevity. Only 1,000 bottles made and just 12 available here. Pair with slow-roasted lamb, duck confit, or aged hard cheese. Drink now through 2035.
