A mature, limited-production Margaret River red with plum, berries, violet and fine tannins.
Morlet Merlot Petit Verdot 2015 is a limited-production Margaret River red, with only 2,000 bottles made. Merlot supplies ripe plum and supple texture, while Petit Verdot contributes colour and structure to a mature, balanced wine.
Why this wine matters
This small-production mature release offers a less familiar Margaret River blend and shows how Merlot’s softness can be strengthened by Petit Verdot.
