Oakridge Meunier 2025

We see very few table wines made from this red variety which is traditionally used in sparklers. The aim is always a fruit-first style for delicious drinking, and it seems that every release represents good value. 100% whole berry fermentation with maturation in old French oak. A gleaming pale crimson/ruby hue, the nose is redolent of spices, red fruits, warm earth, cherries, aniseed, dried herbs and hints of raspberries. The wine has balance, focus, decent length and bright acidity with juicy fruit flavours throughout. Drink over the next four to five years.
