Information about "Morgenster Estate Reserve Red 2016"
The Morgenster Estate Reserve Red is a flagship creation from Morgenster, showcasing the winery's exceptional craftsmanship. Sporting a deep plum hue with ruby highlights, this exquisite wine enchants the nose with an intense, complex bouquet of ripe plums, red and black berries, creamy almonds, fragrant coffee, and caramel, complemented by subtle hints of pencil shavings, cigar box, and cassis. This award-winning Bordeaux-style blend envelops the palate with a cashmere-like elegance and finely woven tannins. Layers of lush dark berry fruit, combined with a remarkable balance of acidity and minerality, emphasize the youthful fruit character of this wine in an impressive manner. A masterful red wine of stunning balance and sophistication!
After alcoholic and malolactic fermentation in stainless steel tanks, the exclusive flagship aged in French barriques, with 60% new wood and 20% second and third fill barrels.
