Tasting Notes:
The Salena Estate South Australian The Source Merlot 2019 delivers a smooth and fruit-forward profile. Aromas of ripe plums, dark cherries, and sweet vanilla lead the way, offering a welcoming and vibrant nose. These rich fruit flavours carry through on the palate, complemented by a soft, smooth mouthfeel and finishing with fine, subtle tannins. This Merlot is a perfect match for roasted meats, pasta dishes with rich sauces, or a classic charcuterie board.
