Product information "Oldenburg Merlot 2019"
From deep plum tones in the glass, the Oldenburg Merlot presents itself with an intense and concentrated bouquet of black fruit aromas, wonderfully underscored by a hint of nutty oak notes. On the palate there is also a sea of juicy nuances of dark berries with superficial notes of black currant. This highly endowed top wine features a stunning extraction and spoils with a solid core and a richly lush and incredibly smooth finish.

The grapes were harvested by hand late February and cold soaked for three days, days before fermentation began. The wines were aged for 18 months in 300 litre French oak barrels, 14% of which were new wood.
