Browse by Grape - Merlot
Bordeaux's second big grape variety, and the one most widely planted in the region. Right-bank wines tend to be Merlot based, with big names such as Petrus and L'Evangile making 100% Merlot wines. Merlot is also incredibly popular in the USA where due to positive health reports on the benefits of red wine, it has been embraced by all and sundry. Merlot of some quality can be found in most wine producing countries, even is it is used simple to soften its bigger brother Cabernet Sauvignon.

Bright ruby red with youthful purple highlights showing fresh, vibrant aromas of red cherry, raspberry and juicy plum lifted by hints of pepper and wild herbs. On the palate, it’s medium bodied, fruit forward and supple with soft tannins and lively acidity giving it an easy, refreshing flow. The fruit is pure and crunchy complemented by a gentle spice note and the finish is smooth, clean and moreish. An approachable, modern Languedoc red that’s all about drinkability and freshness — best enjoyed young with charcuterie, grilled meats or Mediterranean dishes.

Intense cherry colour with glimpses of violet. Fruity, fresh, and frank. The delicate aging notes are in perfect harmony with a varied aroma. A silky first step leads pleasantly to spices and coconut aftertaste. Friendly and fresh in the mouth, typical of young red wines.
