Product information "Guardian Peak Merlot 2023"

The Guardian Peak Merlot is an intense, fruity and typically South African Merlot, produced to be enjoyed young. When poured into the glass, the deep red drop of Merlot is pampered by aromas of ripe cherries and plums, paired with a hint of spicy tobacco nuances as well as fine hints of fragrant leather. These impressions are repeated on the palate, merging into a filigree play of acids and ending long and persistent.

Treatment in the cellar

Vergoren wurde bei 28°C zum Teil in offenen, teils in geschlossenen Tanks. In den offenen Tanks wurde der Maischekuchen regelmäßig manuell untergetaucht, in den geschlossenen Tanks wurde der Wein regelmäßig automatisch mittels Pumpe auf den oben schwimmenden Maischekuchen verteilt. Dieser Prozess dauerte ca. 14 Tage lang an. Anschließend reifte der Wein sechs Monate lang in zweit- sowie drittbefüllten Fässern aus französischer Eiche.
