Information about "Spier Private Collection Merlot 2013"
In a dark and dense ruby red with a light rim, the Spier Private Collection Merlot presents itself in the glass and bewitches the nose with fine aromas of red currants, black cherries and exciting cranberry - a hint of green mint, dark chocolate and fine spices wonderfully round off the red and berry aromas. On the palate you will also find nuances of red cherries and currants. Dense and young tannins will benefit from decanting before drinking. A thoroughly first-class and elegant representative of its grape variety.

Das Traubengut für den Spier Private Collection Merlot wurde handgelesen und mit großer Sorgfalt Beere für Beere verlesen. Der Gärungsprozess dauerte 12 Tage lang an und fand temperaturgeregelt in Tanks aus Edelstahl statt. Nach Abschluss der Gärung wurden 14 weitere Tage auf der Haut zugelassen, um weichere Tannine im Wein zu erhalten. Der Wein reifte 16 Monate in Fässern aus französischer Eiche.
