Four Cousins Collection Merlot 2021 Easy drinking soft Merlot from the Van Loveren Family Vineyards. Four Cousins was created by a group of men on a mission to build a portfolio of wines made for everyday drinking. The balance felt on the palate of this 2021 Merlot is in line with this ethos and it really is a wine that is made for any occasion. Soft red berries, vanilla and a woody, bramble finish make it best paired with hard cheeses and blushing meats like duck and lamb.

Sacred Hill Origin Merlot 2020 This Merlot reflects our roots, always looking to the land first to craft world-class wines that taste like adventure feels. From our home in Hawke’s Bay, this quality wine is made to share. This finely balanced Merlot is rich, complex, and layered. Carefully nurtured in the vineyard and winery to be deliciously full-bodied and fruit driven.

White Cliff Merlot 2021 (NZ) Like an explosion of plum in a glass! The 2021 Merlot from White Cliff is soft and lush with inviting notes of black Doris plum, vanilla, and clove. There’s an earthiness on the palate that helps to relieve the sweetness from the ripe fruit flavor and it’s the balance of tannin and acid that brings it all together. Drink this one with an easy weeknight spaghetti bolognaise for the perfect match.

Marcel Martin Merlot 2020 (Loire, France) An excellent value Merlot from the south of France that's easy drinking with juicy fruits and soft tannins. It displays lovely ripe plum, mocha and spice aromas. Smooth and velvety in the mouth with a touch of cinnamon and spice overlaying ripe damson and cherry flavours. Lingers nicely with strawberry flavours coming through on the finish.

Yalumba Y-Series Merlot 2021 ( South Australia) A bright, luscious wine with classic varietal aromas of red currants, violets, black olive, wild strawberry and vanilla. The characters continue onto the palate with a touch of cedar wood to add complexity. Medium-bodied and fine tannins.

Montana Merlot Cabernet 2020 (NZ) This Merlot Cabernet Sauvignon presents a mellow harmony of fruit sweetness and savoury tannins, leading to a smoot finish with enduring dark fruit characteristics.
