Sirromet
2023 Signature Collection Merlot
Quantity:
Description
REGION: Granite Belt, Queensland.
COLOUR:Â Rich violet-red with purple hues.
NOSE:Â Intense aromas of fruitcake, red plums, blackberry and anise.
PALATE: Complex and powerful flavours of ripe blood plum, blueberry and black cherries, with sweet baking spice and touches of toast and vanilla. 8 months ageing in older French oak barriques has resulted in a plush, velvety texture that combines with the luscious freshness of the fruit. Elegant, fine-grained tannins provide structure for a long, distinctive finish. While drinking beautifully now, this Merlot has excellent cellaring potential and can be enjoyed up until 2030.
WINEMAKING COMMENTS: 2023 was a cooler vintage in the Granite Belt with the long, extended dry autumn days providing perfect conditions to allow slow ripening and concentration and complexity of aromas and flavours. The deep intense colour and purity of fruit of the reds this vintage is particularly notable.
FOOD MATCHING:Â Enjoy with oven-roasted pork & spiced apple and blueberry sauce.
