Petaluma Coonawarra Merlot 2019
Petaluma was founded in 1976 on the simple belief that to make the best wine, you must plant the right grape varieties in the right regions. This is their 'distinguished vineyards' philosophy. Cabernet from Coonawarra, Chardonnay from the Adelaide Hills and Riesling from the Clare Valley remain the basis of the Petaluma range to this day.
They go beyond simply choosing the right region for the right grape variety; they select the individual site that will deliver the best possible outcome.
All Petaluma sites have been meticulously chosen based on their aspect, soil, drainage and rainfall to ensure ultimate site expression with minimal inputs.

Nose:
The 2013 Petaluma Coonawarra Merlot is a deep brooding, dense rich dry red. Ripe plums and black currant aromas and flavours are backed up with subtle delicate oak.
Palate:
The palate is full, luscious and rich with loads of black fruits and cedar oak. Abundant tannins and sweet fruit, typical of low crop Merlot frame the finish. The 2013 Coonawarra Merlot from the Evans Vineyard will reward careful cellaring for many decades while being approachable in its youth, a sign of a great vintage.
