Grape Variety: 100% Merlot
Winemaking Notes: The grapes arrive at the winery in the early hours of the morning. We immediately separate the grapes from the stem without crushing them in order to enable the fermentation of some of the grapes while whole. Fermentation is relatively short (an average of 7-10 days.) This process greatly contributes to the wine’s fruity character, it refreshing flavor and to the softness of the tannins, which bestow a velvety feeling upon the wine.
Tasting Notes: The wine has the typical Merlot aroma of cherry, plum and Mediterranean spices accompanied by a gentle oak aroma. This is a bright red, medium-full bodied wine with a fresh berry aroma. Together, this produces a balanced wine perfectly integrated with the warm climate in the region.
