BEST WINE IN SOUTHERN HIGHLANDS REGION, Kiama Wine plus Show 2 SILVER MEDALS
Ripe plum aromas and a soft fruit palate balanced by integrated
oak and mature tannins provide a long soft finish rounding out
a spectacular merlot to suit any duck or spatchcock in a red wine jus.
"Light, bright red-purple; while only of light-to medium body, offers herb,
olive and cassis all within varietal expectations; lively and long, but not
deep; tangy finish". Rating 90 James Halliday

You may wonder where Peter Douglas went, yes the maker of
some great Wynns reds. Well, he is now steering the Di Giorgio
wines and are they great. The Di Giorgio family bought the Rouge Homme vineyards.
A fruit bomb, rich smooth delicious - if you were reticent about Merlot, then
this one will turn your palate very positive as it did ours - sumptuous to
the last drop and improving.

"Purple-coloured, it offers up scents of wood smoke, spice box,
black currant, black raspberry and chocolate. A medium to full
bodied wine with excellent balance, sweet fruit, and ripe
flavours in an elegant personality. Will evolve and last through 2020."
ROBERT PARKER.

Deep dark black ink colour. An alluring bouquet of dark forest blackberries and notes of warmth
inviting you to partake. At times like this you know the nose does most of the pre-judging.
Palate:- Scrumptious!
Who ever thought a Merlot is a blending wine - WRONG. Intense, balanced berries, mint and
fine oak - a bombshell of flavour for ever exciting the full horizon of the palate.
GLOWING WARMTH Worth every cent.
