Thank you Miss Wood for sending over this sample bottle of your 2019 Ribbon Vale Merlot.
It’s drinking absolutely beautifully in its youth, however I can imagine with a bit of time in the cellar, it’s going to be exceptional with some extra age on it.
It’s 93% Merlot and 7% Cabernet Franc.
I found it an enticing brilliant garnet red colour in the glass. On the nose it smells of fresh cherries, raspberries and blackberries with a hint of floral perfume, leather and vanilla. It’s silky smooth and super balanced on the palate round s delicious ‘I need more’ finish. Gorgeous!
All opinions are my own. Drink what you enjoy!
