2020 Freycinet Vineyard Merlot

SPECIAL RELEASE - ONLY 1150 BOTTLES PRODUCED

For the first time, Freycinet Vineyard has produced a 100% Merlot wine from the 2020 vintage. This is a serious Merlot, worthy of contemplation and a special place in the cellar of any serious Tasmanian wine collector.

Our Merlot vines are at the heart of our original ampitheatre vineyard and in 2020 produced a rich and densely flavoured wine of superb structure and poise. This special release spans Freycinet Vineyard's three generations with vines planted by founders Geoff and Susan Bull in 1979 and winemaking undertaken by 2nd and 3rd generation family members. The result is an elegant Merlot of substance and fragrance, offering rich plums, blueberries and spice, framed by savoury herbs and black olives. 

With only 1150 bottles produced, this is a limited special release and will continue to impress for many years to come.
