Muratie Melck’s Blended Red 2020
Where most of the wines in the portfolio are special occasion wines, this Muratie Melck’s Blended Red 2020 is a medium-bodied blend intended for everyday enjoyment. However, it too is sourced entirely from the estate, and while unpretentious it is well-crafted with its soft tannins, bright red berries and hints of white pepper and chocolate from careful oaking.
VINEYARD
The blend constitutes a selection of grapes from various vineyards on the wine estate.
