Join the merlot revival.. these six bottles highlight merlot's smooth and mellow charm with gentle tones of plum, cherry, chocolate and dark berry fruits. Where shiraz is bold and spicy, merlot is plump and polished and the value is really hard to beat. Highlights include Petaluma Coonawarra Merlot 2018 (RRP $65) and Dandelion Damsel of the Barossa Merlot 2021 (RRP $27.50).
