The Grapes for the Marques wines are manually harvested during April. The wine is aged for 15 months in new and used French oak barriques, then aged a further 2 months after bottling. This fine Merlot has an intense varietal bouquet and richness of flavour. Deep red, dark berries with hints of smokiness. On the palate, the wine is velvety and firm with ripe tannins imparting smoothness and balance. Rich fruitcake spice with a generous lick of oak
The wine marries well with a variety of steaks, roasts, pastas with medium to hearty sauces, and cheeses
