About this product
Deakin Estate Merlot 2025 is a smooth, generous Australian red from Deakin Estate, made for relaxed dinners, weekend barbecues and easy midweek meals. Plush dark fruit, soft tannins and a touch of oak make it instantly approachable, delivering classic Merlot comfort with enough freshness to keep the next glass calling.
Ripe cherry, blueberry and juicy plum aromas lead into violet, fruit cake, cedar and a subtle dark chocolate note. Deakin Estate Merlot 2025 is round and fruit-driven, with sweet plum flavours, gentle vanillin oak and soft earthy spice. Silky tannins and a long, smooth finish make this a crowd-pleasing red with real easy-drinking charm.
Pair this Australian Merlot with slow-cooked lamb shanks, beef pie, spaghetti Bolognese or barbecue burgers loaded with caramelised onion. It also works beautifully with roast pork, mushroom pizza, chicken parmigiana and aged cheddar. Serve just below room temperature and let its soft, juicy profile make dinner simple and satisfying.
