Information about "Clos Malverne Merlot 2022"

Clos Malverne Merlot 2022 exemplifies the quintessential expression of Merlot from the esteemed Clos Malverne estate. This wine reveals a rich bouquet of ripe plums and red berries, delicately layered with hints of star anise. The palate is exceptionally smooth, showcasing a graceful structure and phenomenal complexity. With a lingering finish, this Merlot offers an engaging tasting experience that speaks to its refined origins.

Treatment in the cellar The grapes are hand- harvested at optimal ripeness. They are then destalked, crushed and fermented for 7 days on their skins in open fermenting tanks. The average fermentation temperature is 25- 30° C. After fermentation, the skins are pressed in traditional basket presses. The free run and pressed juices are combined and Malolactic fermentation spontaneously takes place in the tank. The wine was racked and matured in second fill oak barrels for 12 months.
