Fishbone Blue Label Merlot 2023

The floral prettiness of the Merlot grape – the rose, the pressed flowers, the violet – lend this wine considerable appeal especially when matched to the ripe, sweet cherry fruit, plum and blueberry flavours. Has that just picked kind of freshness with a perky, bright acidity that seems to be part of the Fishbone Blue Label DNA before bringing a delicate spicy layer through to a lingering finish.
