The thing is that you need your Merlot to deliver lushness and spice and exuberance but short of ordering Pétrus or Masseto you are never quite sure what more economical offerings will deliver ... worry not ... you are in the safe hands of Julio and he is not a man to let you down.

The big difference between Julio's red wines and European examples, is his seemingly natural ability to obtain round, velvety tannins, that silkily caress the palate. New French oak barrels (for 8 months) have imparted a smoothness and softened tannins to the overall flavour. The wine is then aged 12 months in the bottle at the estate. A deep ruby coloured wine with aromas of ripe red fruit, cassis, spices and a touch of chocolate and coffee. Soft tannins, fruit flavours and a rich complexity.
