Devitt & Moore William Pile Merlot 2019

The cooler climes of Coonawarra suit this variety in good years. This one has turned out rather well. It’s medium bodied with bright red fruit characters. Lifted perfumes of seductive red berry and slightly richer plummy fruit characters with a little new French oak which brings a neat lift. Finely balanced and poised.
