Merlot

2003 Margaret River Merlot

Driftwood Merlot is a stunning representation of the exceptional Merlot varietal from the renowned Margaret River region. This captivating red wine showcases a deep, rich hue that hints at its robust character. Aged beautifully since its vintage in 2003, it delights the palate with a medium-bodied profile, offering a delightful balance of flavors. The acidity is refreshingly vibrant, providing a lively lift to the wine while maintaining a smooth and approachable demeanor. With fruit intensity that bursts forth prominently, expect luscious notes of ripe plum and dark cherry, complemented by subtle hints of herbal undertones. The tannins are soft and well-integrated, enhancing its velvety texture. This wine is bone dry, making it an excellent companion for rich, hearty dishes or simply enjoyed on its own, showcasing the elegance and complexity for which Margaret River is celebrated.
