2012 Sevenhill Inigo Merlot

Opaque black dark red colour with dark crimson red hue. Nosing reveals dark mulberry top notes alongside some dark plum followed by cedar and a hint of spicy bay leaf. Full bodied and ripe with no shortage of richness the palate boasts flavours of black plums and dark chocolate over a very spicy background of earthy cedar. Solid relatively firm tannins with some bitterness on the finish that cuts the wine off a little short. Aftertaste of black plum and some bitter earthiness.
Cellar 3-4 years.
