Yalumba Y Series Merlot 2009

The Yalumba Y Series Merlot is an intense crimson red and displays aromas of beetroot and red fruits with hints of eucalypt, crushed fennel and tobacco leaf. The palate is youthful and bright with red currants and mulberries, juicy fruit through the mid palate, velvety tannins and rhubarb tartness of the finish.
