PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

Shannon Vineyards in Elgin strives to produce wines of elegance and finesse; wines that achieve power, not through higher alcohol but through core quality and complexity. The winemaking approach of minimal intervention highlights the difference in terroirs and emphasizes minerality and individuality. The Shannon Elgin Merlot 2019 showcases ripe red fruits such as plums and dark cherries, with earthy complexity whilst still expressing minerality. Maintaining good acidity lends to outstanding freshness with a well-integrated ripe and seductive tannin structure. This is a silky and elegant red wine best served with a hearty Irish stew with potatoes or a big fat moussaka.
