2018 Levrier by Jo Irvine Cavall Merlot Barossa Valley – French word meaning ‘greyhound’, Lévrier are one of the oldest breed of dog appearing in ancient art and literature throughout history.Originally bred as hunting dogs, these majestic animals are constant companions in my life and have been associated with royalty, warriors and noblemen for centuries.Personally selected single vineyard fruit from dedicated Barossa and Eden Valley growers, matured for 24 months in specific new French oak barrels and bottle aged for a minimum of 12 months before release.Dark blue-purple hues reflect the rich, fragrant aromas of plum, violets and cassis with an intense palate showing red berry, plum and cloves, with a soft and subtle tannin structure that gives this wine the elegance it deserves.
