2021 Brash Higgins MRLO Merlot

MRLO is a wine that aims to change some of the preconceptions of Australian Merlot.

This McLaren Vale grown fruit is fermented wild in clay amphora, settled, then aged in amphora for a further nine months. Brad also makes the addition of 15% Nero d'Avola for an extra bit of pep and funk turning this often maligned variety into something pretty unique.

It's not just creatively put together, it's also undeniably delicious. It's quite exciting to see Merlot so perfumed, so energetic and so more-ish.

Only 200 cases made.
