Lovely brilliant ruby colour with hints of red brick. Fruity bouquet with vanilla notes. Fleshy, well-balanced palate, with a supple and delicate flavour.
80% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon. Traditional winemaking process: fermentation and maceration under controlled temperature not exceeding 32°C. Aged in vats, then for one year in traditional Bordeaux bottles in our cellars at 15°C.
This is a lovely drop of Merlot, demonstrating the wine skills of the Languedoc Roussillon area. I holidayed in the region some years ago and loved their wines - great to see them this side of the world and available. Versatile, easy drinking. So good my neighbour has also bought a case after tasting mine!
