Hickinbotham The Peake

Great Merlot is as elusive as it is seductive and when selecting parcels for The Revivalist we seek to craft a full expression of the variety. From the violet and red flower perfume to the soulful earthy aromas, ebulliently ripe fresh plum fruit flavors and suave fleshy tannins, we carefully layer this wine to a complex yet seamless style. The resounding freshness and lively acid structure ensures this wine is a lively, energetic and mouth-filling expression of Merlot. The 2015 Revivalist Merlot shows dark plum and savoury notes of a little toast, raw cocoa, and caffè latte. The silky tannins are accompanied by a long finish.
