2019
Merlot
Though Kew hasn't had a Merlot for a number of years, the 2019 vintage presented an ideal opportunity for a revisit. We strive to create wines expressive of our unique terroir, while always remaining true to the varietal character.

WINEMAKER'S NOTES
This Merlot strikes a beautiful balance between the robust fruit notes inherent to the varietal and the complexity resulting from 18 months in French oak. Firm yet elegant structure forms the backbone of this wine, while plush textures and flavours on the palate keep it approachable. Bright black cherry and dark plum on the nose deepen into sweet spice with a hint of spearmint. On the palate, the concentrated fruit follows through and is complemented by a rich note of baker’s chocolate. Full bodied with ripe, structured tannin and a touch of smokiness, our 2019 Merlot has a long finish.
