Description
Colour: Violet red. Nose: Intense and precise with dark chocolate cacao and red fruit aromas, a hint of pencil shavings, slightly savoury, with a hint of violet floral notes shining through the fruit as it opens up. Palate: There’s a juicy red fruit core with flavour bursts of cherry and raspberry and some savoury and floral notes with a finish of fresh herbal tobacco leaf. The elegance of the tannins is seductive – fine, balanced and silky. A wine of vibrancy and minerality showcasing the perfect balance between grace and power.
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.
