Product information "Rickety Bridge Merlot 2016"
In a deep black ruby red, the Rickety Bridge Merlot flows into the glass and exudes incredibly intense aromas of ripe plums and red cherries with fine herbal nuances and a hint of wood. The palate is lush and juicy, full of red currant and blueberry aromas with impressive, tempting notes of dark chocolate. Beautifully structured with soft tannins and a long and lingering finish.
