Description
Soft tannins with an orchestra of black berries gives an indication of wood displaying a smoky, spicy nose. The wine is not for aging as the acidity has been lowered in cellar allowing the wine to become “sessionable” and extremely smooth contrary to the usual “chalky” expectations. Look for the “pencil box” notes on the nose and the distinctive “green bell pepper”.
Serve at 15-18 Deg.
Pair with piquant stews, curry and char grilled steaks. Pork and poultry dishes. Roast chicken, rib roasts and pizza all welcome the ripe berry mouth feel.
Enjoy now and within 2 to 3 years from vintage.

We love this wine and it was very well priced. A good everyday drinking wine that goes well while cooking and during meals.

I received a bottle of O’Connells as a gift. I’m hooked, this is my favourite wine now. I like a soft smooth wine and this Merlot hits the spot perfectly!
