Dowie Doole Estate Merlot 2022

Share

Merlot in all of its pretty floral and spice aromatics, which is saying a lot. Lifted violet, anise, sage, plum and black cherry abound. Clean, bright and medium-bodied, the maker shows respect for the grape variety, allowing the fruit to sing. Acidity is fresh and lively, the presence of oak is unobtrusive, tannins are fine, and the fruit is lovely, rich across the middle palate and showing fair length to close. Not greatly complex but mighty tasty and expressive.
