Juicy fruits | Savoury

The LS Merchants Red Blend 2025, better known as Drank, is the kind of red made for opening rather than overthinking. This playful, nouveau-style blend brings together Tempranillo, Sangiovese and Malbec in a fresh, juicy style packed with violets, blue fruits and cherry cola. It has enough tannin to feel like a proper red, but the brightness and energy make it perfect for relaxed drinking, especially with a slight chill.

Bottled in May soon after the 2025 vintage, Drank captures the fruit while it is young, vibrant and full of life. Tempranillo brings juicy red fruit, Sangiovese adds cherry flavour and savoury grip, while Malbec contributes colour and plush blue-fruit depth. The result is a seriously fun Margaret River red for pizza night, backyard barbecues and Friday knock-offs.

Why You Will Love It

  • A juicy, modern Margaret River red made for immediate enjoyment
  • Tempranillo, Sangiovese and Malbec create layers of cherry, blue fruit and spice
  • Lifted violet perfume with playful cherry-cola character
  • Fresh enough to serve slightly chilled, but with grippy tannins for structure
  • Brilliant with pizza, pasta, barbecued meats or a casual glass after work
  • Sealed under cork for a little old-school theatre when it is time to open it

Tasting Notes

  • Colour: Bright ruby-purple with a youthful, vibrant appearance.
  • Aromatics: Lifted violets, blueberry and dark cherry, with raspberry, cherry cola and a gentle touch of spice.
  • Palate: Juicy and energetic, combining ripe blue fruits with red cherry and plum. Sangiovese brings freshness and savoury shape, Tempranillo adds generous fruit, and Malbec rounds out the middle with darker berry flavour.
  • Finish: Dry and lively, with grippy tannins, lingering cherry fruit and a savoury edge that makes it particularly good with food.

What Is a Nouveau-Style Red?

A nouveau-style red is made to highlight youthful fruit, freshness and immediate drinkability rather than long oak maturation or heavy extraction. Drank was bottled shortly after vintage to retain its bright berry flavours and lively personality. It is still a dry red wine, but it feels lighter, juicier and more energetic than a traditional full-bodied Shiraz or Cabernet.

FAQ 🧐

Is LS Merchants Drank a light red?
Yes. It is lighter and juicier than a traditional full-bodied red, although its grippy tannins still give it enough structure to pair well with food.

Should I chill this red wine?
A light chill suits it beautifully. Serving around 14 to 16°C sharpens the fruit, lifts the violet perfume and makes the wine even more refreshing.

Is it sweet because it tastes like cherry cola?
No. Cherry cola describes its combination of ripe cherry fruit and playful spice. The wine finishes dry, with tannin and savoury freshness.

What does each grape add to the blend?
Tempranillo contributes juicy red fruit and generosity, Sangiovese adds cherry flavour, acidity and grip, while Malbec brings colour and plush blue-fruit depth.

When should I drink it?
Drank was deliberately bottled early and made for youthful drinking. It is an ideal bottle to open now rather than one that needs years of cellaring.

I have been buying my wines from Kirk for about two years now and I have never had a bad experience or wine. I love the fact that the wines are all West Australian, so supporting local and lower carbon footprint. He delivers when it’s convenient for me and brings the wine to my door. Wines are all good quality and well priced, especially the cleanskins. Highly recommended

I've been ordering from Partners in Wine for three years now - from the UK for my sister living in Perth. Each time they've been bang on with my order including on time delivery. Kirk has also helped me select my wines from an extensive list. A very pleasant and friendly company to deal with. I would highly recommend them.
