Description
The wine exhibits the rich, aromatic profile characteristic of Merlot, showcasing impeccable balance and elegance. The vineyard consistently delivers a delightful blend of sweet cherry and chocolate, harmoniously balanced by dried herbs. The 2019 vintage was marked by warm, consistent conditions, which facilitated an early harvest before the fruit became overly ripe, allowing the winemakers to preserve the wine's beautiful freshness. The wine's pH is 3.65, and the acidity level is 5.6 g/l, creating a well-structured and vibrant drinking experience.
