Tasting note
Juicy and vibrant, with espresso and blueberry notes. Earl Grey tea aromas linger on the finish. Drink now through 2027. Score - 89. (MaryAnn Worobiec, winespectator.com, 2017)
This dry and cherry-red coloured red showcases a complex nose releasing balsamic, woody, fruity and vegetal scents. You will be charmed with this medium-bodied wine revealing a broad texture, fleshy tannins and a medium finish.
This is the unique environment in which merlot produces its vibrant, fully ripened varietal flavours. Essentially Oyster Bay Merlot is about elegance and intensity of fruit. This well-structured wine offers rich fruit flavours with hints of spice. The hero is always freshness of ripe fruit, spice and soft tannins on the palate. Enjoy with grilled steaks or gourmet sausages.
