Vineyard Reserve Merlot, TerraMater

The Canepa family came from Italy in 1930 in 1996 the three sisters Edda, Gilda and Antonieta founded Terra Mater. Their Italian roots remain firmly in the wines, with Sangiovese and Zinfandel featuring heavily in their wines. Whilst they are winning medals for their Olive oils internationally, the wines have yet to be properly discovered. Their winemaker Paula Cifuentes, is timid, yet assured, something that shines through in her wines. The combination of old vines, a gentle winemaking style and determination is increasingly resulting in wines of surprising precision and finesse. Throw your prejudices’ aside, there’s a wine for every day of the week in this range!
