Oxford Landing has been active in winemaking for over 60 years. The Oxford Landing vineyards are located in the province of South Australia, south of New South Wales. A two-hour drive from the provincial capital, Adelaide, lies the small town of Waikerie. This is where Wyndham Hill-Smith, founder of Oxford Landing, began his adventure. He saw potential in the fertile soils along the banks of the important Murray River. More than half a century later, Oxford Landing wines, including Merlot, are conquering the world. Wine enthusiasts are fans of the accessible, friendly, and appealing flavors of Oxford Landing wines.
Everything about this wine is perfect, except the price. For this quality, we had a higher price in mind. A remarkable achievement. We don't say it often, but this wine is actually too cheap. It starts with the aroma, where a rich bouquet greets your nose. You smell delicate fruit, raspberries, and red berries, but also anise, licorice, and lilac. The aroma alone makes us secretly fall in love with Oxford Landing Merlot. The palate is velvety smooth. You'll keep sipping. Initially, notes of plum and raspberry are immediately noticeable. Taste again, and rich, warm, black cherries complete the flavor palette. The finish is surprisingly long. Oxford Landing Merlot is a must-have for your wine cellar!
