Australian red wine with a spicy aroma and notes of stewed fruit. The taste is smooth, aromatic and fresh. Excellent barbecue wine, but also - slightly chilled - very tasty with small snacks.

Description

The Murphy family's Trentham Estate has approximately forty-five acres of vineyards in Murray Darling, south-east Australia. Due to the success of recent years, the company has grown strongly and the family also buys grapes from befriended winegrowers. The base wines of Trentham Estate are bottled under the name River Retreat, which refers to the region's unique wetlands. Wine critics are full of praise for the quality and excellent value for money. This red River Retreat is made exclusively from merlot grapes and partly ripens in oak barrels. The taste is full, smooth and soft. Refined fruity and very accessible. Ideal to drink as it is, during a drink or as a meal wine with spicy (meat) dishes.
