Regular price $33.00
Kaurna Country
Winemaker Steffi Snook sources merlot from the Coonawarra wine region and ferments it on skins for a quick six days. The resulting wine is bright, fresh, slurpy and lively - a quite different take on the variety that leans into its ability to be a youthful, refreshing red wine instead of plummy, chocolatey stuff associated with merlot. Here, blueberry, mulberry, boysenberry with mixed, dried Italian herbs, a bit of saline mineral character, some juicy cranberry tang finishing things off nicely. A very playful and very delightful red wine.
