Product Notes

Ironstone Merlot hails from the mineral-rich soil of California, embodying a compelling fusion of rich flavours. This exquisite wine exudes lashings of wild berries and black cherries leading into a finish filled with delightful hints of toasty oak. A perfectly balanced composition with ripe tannins and gentle acidity, it's both plush and velvety. Every glass bursts with robust and hearty character, offering your senses an enlivening journey. Its deep crimson hue amplifies its allure, crowning it as a marvellous choice for an elegant dinner. Ironstone Merlot is wine-drinking satisfaction in its most rampant form.

Tasting Notes

Our Merlot is bursting with luscious fruit and soft tannins with excellent drinkability. Rich, ripe black cherry and black plums lead to a hint of vanilla and toast. Flavors of currants with juicy dark fruit and spicy cedar end with a rounded, well-balanced and complex finish.
