Newton Vineyard's unfiltered Merlot 2006 is deep ruby in colour with the aromas of dried lavender and green olive.
Intense flavours of fresh red currants, black plum and cedar with fine-grained tannins suggesting this wine will age gracefully.Intense, focused and complex, with excellent structure and pure cassis and black cherry–laced fruit that turns fleshy midpalate before the tannins firm up on the finish.
The savoury characters of this Merlot complement beef tenderloin and robust meats like venison.
