Heggies Vineyard Merlot 2006

A wet spring 2005 recharged the soils at Heggies after a very dry autumn and winter, leading to healthy vine canopies. This was fortunate as two extremely hot weeks in December and January caused us some concern over sunburn but the canopies offered ample protection to the grapes. A milder February and March lead to early flavour development at lower baumes than usual and sustained natural acidity. Suitable for vegans
