Journey's End V2 Merlot 2017
South Africa, Stellenbosch
Merlot
High-priced
Description
Ruby, clear and bright. Displaying blackcurrants and raspberries, with hints of subtle blackcurrant leaf. The well-matched oak allows for the fruit to shine while creating complexity with notes of vanilla and nutmeg. This Merlot exhibits very soft tannins with just enough grip to promise good cellaring potential. An elegant, polished wine, already drinking well. Best drunk now and until 2027.
