Product information "Keermont Merlot 2021"
The Keermont Merlot presents itself in the glass of deep royal red and ensnares the nose with a beguiling bouquet of powdery ripe strawberry aromas as well as delicious hints of dried herbs, fragrant cigar box and cinnamon. Soft, clean and elegant on the palate, here delicious nuances of ripe red fruits indulge with subtle undertones of aromatic orange peel and fine dried herbs. Chalky soft tannins and a natural acid play provide fresh elegance and a long-lasting, juicy and pleasantly dry finish. Highly endowed pleasure of great caliber!

The grapes for the Keermont Merlot were hand-picked at optimal ripeness and vinified separately. The fermentation process took place in an incredibly gentle manner with minimal intervention in the natural processes in open fermenters and with the aid of traditional methods. Once fermentation was complete, the wine was aged in French oak barrels for 27 months before being bottled by hand without filtering or refining.
