Information about "Protea Merlot 2021"

The Protea Merlot captivates with an aromatic profile of black cherries, ripe plums, and enticing berries, meticulously complemented by delightful hints of dark chocolate and cocoa. This robust and opulent Merlot reveals nuances of succulent dark fruit and refined tobacco leaves on the palate, offering an indulgently luxurious and sensual tasting journey. The wine exhibits exceptional harmony and balance, culminating in a generous, silky finish that lingers.

Treatment in the cellar

Die Trauben für den Protea Merlot wurden mit großer Sorgfalt und jeder Menge Know-how per Hand gelesen. Bei Ankunft in der Kellerei wurde das Traubengut entrappt und angequetscht, woraufhin der Saft in 10.000 l Fässer aus französischer Eiche und in 10.000 l Tanks aus Edelstahl gefüllt wurde. Die Gärung auf der Haut bei geregelten 26°C dauerte 15 Tage lang an. Anschließend reifte der Wein 12 Monate in Kontakt mit französischer Eichenholz-Staven.
