Grapes

Merlot (100%)

Terroir & vinification

Argilo-limestone soils and limestone marls in the foothills of the Cévennes. Different plots in the vineyard are chosen for the best grapes. A two-week maceration, then gentle extraction throughout the fermentation process (under 28°C) results in the varietal aromas being fully expressed, and a finesse on the palate.

Tasting

A pale ruby hue, on the nose there are cherry, redcurrant and peppermint hints; on the palate, it has wonderful sweet cherry fruits, a lively balanced acidity, soft tannins and notes of violet and mint.

Food matches

This wine is perfect with charcuterie, and with goat's cheese.

Serving

To be served at 16-18°C.

I am used to drinking Chilean Merlot and this is much better. It is fruity, but there is a bit of mint on the nose as well. It was perfect for opening after a day at work. A real quaffer!

This one is a good. I took it around to a friend’s place for an outdoor catch up and they liked it too. I don’t like heavy reds, particularly in summer and this one is not heavy at all. Just fruity and soft.

A very enjoyable wine for a good price. I have been bored lately of buying wine at my local supermarket, so I was glad to find some Languedoc wines that could be delivered so I could have something a bit different. It is hard to beat a fruity Merlot like this.
