Left Hook Second Round Merlot 2013
About the wine
Packs a punch!
- From our knock-out winemaker Rory-clifton Parks who continues to blow us away time and time again! This Merlot brings a beautiful Ruby Red colour in your glass, Which would look perfect next to Panceta, Bacon & Mushrooms mildly grilled with tomado-based pasta sauces.
- The aroma packs a delicate punch of lifted cherries, plum and mint with gorgeous twists of spice, vanilla and toasty oak.
- The footwork of the wine is mind-blowing, the palate brings you an abundance of sweet fruit characters, layers of mocha and spices from the oak along with smooth tannins and a generous length to end it all!
