Former New York sommelier Brad Hickey (aka Brash Higgins) has made McLaren Vale his home, where he crafts wines that blend tradition with experimentation. This single-vineyard Merlot comes from the Lennon Vineyard, grown on red-brown clay soils, and is fermented and matured in clay amphorae, giving purity and textural finesse. The 2021 is deep ruby, with aromas of dark cherry, plum and cocoa, lifted by herbal spice. The palate is plush yet vibrant, framed by silky tannins and a savoury, earthy edge from the amphora. Long and supple on the finish, it’s delicious now or over the next 5 years.
