James Halliday describes him as 'impish' and 'exuberant' even. One look at that fine set of moustaches and you'll gather Geoff Merrill is no wallflower. His eponymous label has been delivering vinous greatness since 1980. His brand's icon is the scales of justice, his motto 'the perfect balance' and the wines, through elegance and a subtle – rather than showy – delivery of flavour, show a harmony and, yes, balance that can only come from great fruit, great sites and, as the Jimmy Watson trophy would suggest, great winemaking.

Geoff Merrill
The Geoff Merrill winemaking philosophy has been, and always will be, to make wine that allows regional, varietal and vintage expression, without excessive winemaker intervention.
Great wine is a matter of balance and our passion for subtle, elegant and harmonious flavours in wine is well documented.
We believe that maturation, both in cask and particularly in bottle, at our cellars prior to release plays an important role in achieving this aim.
The premium red wines from Geoff Merrill will generally be released 3 years after harvest, while our reserve selection and Henley will be held in our cellars for up to 5-6 years prior to release.
