Black Swan Vineyards are named for Australia’s black swan, a captivating creature that symbolizes the unique beauty of our vineyards and the bold elegance of our wines.

Wine maker notes

Crafted with premium grapes selected from some of South Eastern Australia’s finest wine growing regions, our Black Swan Merlot offers subtle berry aromas with cherry flavors and a hint of herbs that provide a smooth finish. This is a medium-bodied Merlot that features bright, ripe cherry notes balanced by subtle toasted oak overtones and hints of vanilla. These well-balanced flavors give way to a surprisingly soft, clean finish that adds to the smoothness of the wine. Try our Merlot with a variety of red meats and pasta.
