Tasting Notes
Giesen's Estate Merlot is a wine that's very approachable in youth and suitable for any occasion. The fruit is sourced from a premium Gisborne vineyard, producing a Merlot with good fruit intensity and a touch of complexity through restrained use of oak. Sweet red berry fruit and plum aromas with excellent textural viscosity, subtle oak characters and focused acidity on the palate. A balanced and lengthy finish rounds off an ideal NZ Merlot
