Tasting Notes - Iron Bark Forest Merlot 2001 (Recommended)

Medium red, lighter than what I’d expect from the region. Nose is quite light, berries and a tiny touch of game. Much more lively in the palate. Plenty of aniseed early with some spice but this fruit drops off a touch. Well underpinned with appropriate tannins. Strictly medium bodied but does the job nicely.
