I wasn’t taken by Leconfield’s 2017 merlot from Coonawarra.  It opens to aromas of red berries.  The palate is youthful, with a medium-full body.  Its acidity seemed noticeable, and the fruit lacking in density.  A pleasant enough wine that is ready to drink now. Rating: Acceptable. Abv: 14%. Price: $26. Website: www.leconfieldwines.com.
