Information about "Capaia Merlot Cabernet Sauvignon 2016"

The Capaia Merlot Cabernet Sauvignon convinces with a harmonious combination of well-integrated tannins and intense fruit aromas, just as it is classical for a cuvée in Bordeaux style. On the palate this wine pampers with a lot of depth and power and culminates in an elegant and long lasting finish.

Treatment in the cellar

Die verschiedenen Rebsorten fermentierten 10 Monate lang separat in großen französischen Eichen-Fermentern und wurden nach Abschluss der Gärung mit großer Sorgfalt verschnitten. Anschließend reifte der Wein 12 Monate lang in Zweit- und Drittfüllung in Fässern aus französischer Eiche.
