The Hunter Valley’s Hope Estate have put their talented stamp on this fine Merlot. Winemaker James Campkin is extremely patient with this temperamental variety, which certainly shines in this stunning example.
The Hope Estate team are firm believers in estate-grown varietal wines as they feel it’s the only way to ensure that the distinctive regional characters can shine through. Taste their philosophy for yourself in this fabulous Hunter Valley Merlot with its herb, raisin and cassis characters. The Old World style palate displays earthy notes, typical of the Hunter, along with savoury spice and slightly meaty flavours.
