Huon Hooke – Deep rich colour and a rich, concentrated bouquet led by smoky char-oak and the palate is likewise quite oak-driven, with medium to full-body and slightly gritty texture. Sweet raspberry fruit core. It could reward a little time in the cellar. It's a bit young at this juncture. The Real Review, 23 March, 2021
About This Wine
The 2019 vintage of the Revivalist Merlot displays savory and herbaceous notes along with Amarena cherries, rose petals, anise, and
vanilla bean. The body of the wine is silky and lingers on the palate.
