SOUTHBROOK |
| Fairly intense purple red colour. Bright, slightly spicy, ripe, plum-cherry-cassis nose with some cedary-sandalwood notes. Dry, medium bodied, bright, gently juicy, harmonious, fresh, ripe, plum-black-cherry-cassis flavours with a lingering, mineral-tinged, very gently cedary, well balanced finish. This attractive, ready-to-drink, crowd-pleaser has 13% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar with a screwcap closure and lot number L2023-06-22 on the lower part of the glass bottle. It was fermented in open top oak vats with wild yeast followed by 100% malolactic fermentation and then aged in French barrels for 12 months. |

| TASTING NOTE: All the Triomphe red wines are wild fermented with 100% French oak (in a combination of new and used barrels) aging for 18 months with the grapes sourced from the estate and trusted organic growers. The Merlot is highly aromatic on the nose with pure red berries, cassis, anise and fine oak spices. The palate reveals good concentration of red and dark berries, with earthy notes, spice and some structure on the vibrant, long finish. Can cellar through 2032.
