All good Merlot wines have a strong black fruit statement and the aromas of this Merlot are right in that mould. There is an array of rich blackberry, blueberry and cherry notes and as with its Cabernet Sauvignon sibling, they dominate. Sitting very much in the background when a young wine are the beginnings of Merlot's earthy tones, with just a touch of leather and tar. On the palate there is immediate impact from rich dark fruits, making the mouthfeel supple and generous. Given this variety can produce assertive tannins, Moss Wood work hard to establish balanced structure, with firm phenolics that have good tarry concentration but none of the drying astringency that can be typical in Merlot. Rather, the dark fruit flavours flow across the palate and then the tannin and oak on the finish give just enough firmness followed by some pencil shavings notes.
