Pairs well with: manchego cheese, hamburgers and roast beef.

Notes:

Dark purplish colour and a beautiful aromatic nose full of fresh red fruits, especially cherries and strawberries.

The palate is very pleasant with dark cherries mixing with other ripe red fruits and ripe plums, and light touch and vanilla providing a rather well balanced wine with good length.

I am having this wine with manchego cheese and the combination is great.

Weemala Merlot, Australia

Wine: Weemala Merlot

Producer: Logan

Region: Central Ranges

Country: Australia

Colour: Red

Year: 2010

Grape: Merlot

Supplier: Vino                                                                                            

Price (VND): 440.000

Points: 91/100

Pairs well with: Bolognese pasta, steaks

Notes:

Darkish purple colour, with a beautiful perfumed nose of red berries, violets and vanilla.

The palate is also very pleasant, with raspberries, violets, cherries and plumbs.

With a medium to long finish, this is a great discovery for the price; if you like traditional Bordeaux merlots, you will enjoy this at a fraction of the price. I am trying it as I write with macaroni Bolognese, and they really complement each other. I will definitely be buying more of it!
