Information about "Clos Malverne Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot 2022"
The Clos Malverne Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot exhibits a captivating softness and approachability, enveloping the palate in a mélange of dark berry aromas punctuated by subtle herbal notes typical of Cabernet Sauvignon. The unyielding depth of its dark ruby hue is complemented by the refreshing fruitiness brought forth by Merlot, crafting an exquisitely balanced, medium-bodied red blend. This wine showcases an elegant style that invites enjoyment across various occasions, marking it as a remarkably versatile choice.
This classic blend is crafted from hand-selected grapes harvested at optimal ripeness. Upon arrival at the winery, they were destemmed, crushed, and fermented on the skins for seven days at controlled temperatures of 25-30°C in open fermentation tanks. Following fermentation, the wine was pressed and underwent malolactic fermentation in stainless steel tanks, before aging for 12 months in a combination of 80% French and 20% American oak barrels.
