Holden Manz Merlot Reserve 2020

Full-bodied.  Black cherries and plum on entry with a complex mid-palate and a mocha finish – very moreish!  Soft round tannins with a long velvety fruity finish.

The 2019/20 growing season was characterized by cooler but windy

conditions. Fruit set was negatively impacted by wind damage. The

vintage was moderately warm. Bunches and berries were smaller than

average but with lots of fruit intensity. The wines from this vintage are

developing great depth of flavour.
