Quilty & Gransden Merlot 2018

This wine is proof that merlot can be nuanced and interesting. There are bright red plums, blackberries and blueberries – juicy and fresh. Crystallised violets and the almost floral scent of freeze-dried raspberries mingle with the comforting aromas of nana’s pantry and the promise of baking. It’s everything you want in a weekday wine with soft tannins, great concentration and a medium body. Serve with a bowl of your favourite home-made comfort food – your mum’s spaghetti bolognese recipe or a rich minestrone soup.
