Information about "Holden Manz Merlot Reserve 2019"

The Holden Manz Merlot flows into the glass with an intense ruby red colour and seductively smells of ripe plums, black blackberries and fine hints of fragrant forest soil and elegantly integrated oak wood. The palate is caressed by lush ripe fruit nuances of black blackberries, dark cherries and fragrant tobacco, paired with an excellently balanced acidity. A well-structured wine with soft tannins, stunning density and perfectly integrated oak wood notes.

Treatment in the cellar

Das handgelesene Traubengut wurde Beere für Beere sortiert und zu 100 % im Fass vergoren. Die Fermentierung fand spontan (wild) statt, d.h. ausschlieβlich die in der Umgebung und auf der Frucht natürlich vorhandene Hefe setzte den Gärungsprozess in Gang, ohne den Zusatz kommerzieller Hefen. Nach Abschluss der Fermentierung reifte der Wein 22 Monate lang in französischen Barriques, von denen 70 % Neuholz ausmachten.
