Radburnd Cellars Merlot 2021

94 | Ripe, figgy, developing nose. Serious oak and dark fruit aromas with a savoury profile. Rich, ripe and juicy fruit, with serious oak-derived flavours and creamy concentration. Fruit-gum, liquorice, vanilla and plummy fruit.

93 | Very intense briary leafy tobacco, slight lift of volatile acidity. Big tannin grip. There are excellent ripe Cabernet family flavours there too. Pretty smart wine and solid.

93 | Fragrant leafy bouquet, cassis and blackcurrant leaf. Fresh and lively, just ripe red plum, plentiful fine-grained tannins. A cooler leafier style.
