Angove Long Row South Australia Merlot NV (187ml) - 24 Bottles

Winery Overview

Angove Family Winemakers, established in 1886, is a fifth-generation family-owned winery renowned for producing approachable, fruit-driven wines that reflect the character of their vineyards. The Long Row label embodies enjoyable, easy-drinking styles crafted for sharing and casual occasions.

Vineyards & Vintage Conditions

The Merlot grapes are sourced from the Riverland region in South Australia, where warm daytime temperatures and cooler nights contribute to preserving the fruit's natural acidity and aromatics. The vintage conditions were ideal for producing vibrant, fruit-forward wines with balanced structure.

Winemaking Process

Grapes were harvested at optimal ripeness to ensure freshness. The fruit underwent gentle pressing and cool fermentation to retain its natural flavours. Minimal intervention during winemaking resulted in a clean, expressive Merlot true to its varietal character.
