Information about "Vondeling Petit Rouge Merlot 2022"
With its glistening ruby color, the Vondeling Petit Rouge Merlot 2022 reveals a vibrant bouquet of luscious cherry and delicate raspberry, accented by whispers of black pepper. These delightful fruit notes dance on the palate, where smooth tannins lend a velvety texture that culminates in a soft, harmonious finish. This wine offers a lively experience that enlivens any dining occasion.
The grapes were destemmed but not crushed, fermenting at cool temperatures to retain a broad spectrum of lively fruit and spice without heavy tannins. Post-fermentation, the wine was transferred to 300-liter French oak barrels, with malolactic fermentation occurring in barrel. It spent a total of 13 months in French oak before blending and bottling for optimal enjoyment.
