Tasting notes from the winery for Freehand Dark Nat Merlot 2018

Dark Crimson with a sweet and savory mix of mulberry, rhubarb, lavender and rosemary. Light and fun. Juicy and fresh, flavours of fleshy plum, blistered tomato, blackberry jam, beetroot and toffee apple.

A light spritz. Very controllable to open.

Decant prior to serving.

Winemaking: Biodynamic, organically grown fruit. Hand harvested. Some whole bunch, cold soaked and fermented on skins. Gently basket pressed to French Oak for the remaining fermentation. Hand bottled without fining or filtration with residual sugar added for a light fizz. Zeo sulphites added
