About This Wine


Wave Hill Council

Merlot

In Australia, Merlot is rarely bottled as a stand-alone varietal. This particular vintage was so delightful that it was specially pulled out of blending. A perfect porch pounder, this wine features perfumed aromas and a soft rich texture. It is incredibly approachable and will have you going back for another glass! Merlot is a wine designed to pair with a variety of foods and this is no exception - think slow-braised, grilled, or roasted meats or anything with a spicy kick.

Wine Region


Australia

The Land Down Under is famous for taking well-known European grapes and giving them a new personality. From bold, jammy Shiraz to creamy oak-tinged Chardonnay, herbaceous Sémillon to distinctively citrusy Riesling, when it comes to quality, Australian wine can be breathtaking. This is thanks to its variety of climates and terroirs. Australia is roughly the same size as the continental United States, with temperatures ranging from searingly hot to moderately cool. The best regions have warm days and cool nights, tempered by breezes from the Southern and Indian Oceans.
