The red wine Merlot »Seven Poplars«, vintage 2001 from the winery Craggy Range has been rated in 2006 with Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape variety Merlot from the region Hawkes Bay in New Zealand.
Deep ruby garnet, violet reflections. Pleasant nutty notes on the nose, underlaid with fine heart cherries, a hint of roasted almonds. Elegant on the palate, fine extract sweetness, well-integrated tannins, red berry finish, medium length and texture, pleasant food companion, already easy to drink. I personally liked it better than the jury.
