Dowie Doole Estate Merlot McLaren Vale 2022

Deep garnet hue here, this is beautifully aromatic. There are notes of chocolate, violets, deftly handled oak, black cherries and Christmas cake. A supple palate with abundant but very fine tannins, and good acidity. There is an appealingly lingering finish and good balance throughout. Like this a lot and I am certain it will drink well for the next four to eight years.
