Peccavi The Estate Merlot 2019
$150.00
High octane merlot indeed, from Australia’s finest label of this variety. Opulent aromas of dark cherries, plumcake and fresh vanilla oak lifted by heady aromas of red flowers simply shriek their varietal purity, while the sumptuously flavoured, long and polished palate delivers a pristine, international level of merlot expression without ever exceeding a medium to full-bodied framework. Framed by a fine grade of powdery tannins that become more firm and grainy with aeration, it’s gentle and refined, finishing long and pure. Made entirely from the lastest Bordeaux selection of merlot clones.

Peccavi
Jeremy Muller has assembled a fine team to bring to reality his dream of a world-class wine business based in Margaret River. This project is steadily gaining momentum, and today Peccavi (whose name derives from one of the most famous military quotes of all time) is emerging as a producer of wines whose Old Worldly elegance and suppleness actually extend the region's impressive repertoire.
Peccavi has a spectacular site on rolling hills above Yallingup and is actually the Margaret River's highest vineyard. It has been refined and expanded in a way that is extremely impressive, with varieties being carefully matched to the number of profoundly different soil types and microclimates o nthe single estate.
Today, each of Peccavi's wines are amongst the very finest of Margaret River, especially the Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz and Sauvignon Blanc Semillon. Peccavi's new Merlots, built around Australia's first plantings of the latest Bordeaux clones of this variety, are leading the way in this country. The second label is named 'No Regrets', something Latin scholars should not fail to appreciate. It massively over-delivers at its price point.
The top level The Estate wines are frankly amongst the best this region has yet seen, bringing a world-class level of intensity and elegance.
Peccavi is shortly to construct a new winery on the property.
