Description
Colour: Violet red. Nose: Mulberry, black cherry and prune dominate the aroma of this fine wine with some herbal green tobacco and savoury black olive adding another aromatic layer. Refreshing mineral notes and earthy graphite open up to reveal a floral bouquet of freshly picked violets. Palate: Deep black fruits, - prune, sour and black cherry – with a touch of savoury olive in a medium-bodied frame of dense, fine silky tannins. Complex, well balanced and smooth with a creamy texture, showing nice vivacity and depth of flavour.
Food Pairing
Merlot wine matches with a wide variety of foods because of its position in the middle of the red wine spectrum. In general Merlot pairs well with chicken and other light meats as well as lightly-spiced dark meats.
