Philip Shaw The Conductor Merlot 2023

Philip Shaw is to Orange what Brokenwood are to the Hunter Valley or Penfolds are to South Australia. The first big name to plant their flag in the Orange region, Philip Shaw Wines are very much the benchmark for quality and new varieties in the region. The character series is an expression of varietal distinction. Each wine has an intrinsic link to the personality of the Winemaker, the Grower, and the Artist. The Conductor is the thread between the music, bringing all elements of the orchestra together. In the same way the team at Philip Shaw forms the thread between the vineyard and the winery. This is a succulent and savoury merlot. Dark cherry, chocolate and cloves on the palate with hints of dried herbs and forest floor. On the palate there is a juicy core of dark fruit berry fruit and chewy tannins.
