Early spring rains set up growth for an excellent canopy giving the fruit good protection over the warm dry summer. Harvested in mid March, when the baume was 13.5 and fermented in stainless steel tanks.
A velvety rich Merlot with delicious plum and berry flavours that is accentuated by a soft and pleasing oak aroma.

Dee Vine Estate is a winery established from the traditional family vineyards of Michele and Domenico Scarfone, two brothers who emigrated from Southern Italy in 1956 to settle at Nericon within the Riverina area of Australia.
They planted the first vines on the property the following year, with the vision of producing traditional Italian table wine for the Australian wine drinker. Three generations later, Adrian Bianchini and Fernando Rombola have significantly expanded from their grandfathers original parcel of land, whilst following the same principles; a passion for fine wine and dedication to produce a remarkably distinctive product.
