A classic French aperitif, Lillet Blanc is a blend of still wine, brandy, herbs and spices. Then aged in oak for up to twelve months. Serve over ice with an orange twist.
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!
