Information about "Porcupine Ridge Merlot 2024"

Porcupine Ridge Merlot 2024 enchants the eye with its vibrant ruby red hue, signaling the elegance that lies within. This distinguished offering from Boekenhoutskloof reveals a captivating bouquet of ripe red plums, cranberries, and an intricate spice blend of cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg, complemented by delicate herbal notes of rosemary, thyme, and oregano. On the palate, it showcases a silky, plush texture with a remarkable soft mid-palate, expressing darker berry fruit flavors harmoniously balanced by velvety, integrated tannins and bright acidity. The finish is lively, accented with subtle hints of mocha and dark milk chocolate, leaving a lasting impression.

Treatment in the cellar

Die Trauben für diesen Wein wurden vor der alkoholischen Gärung einer Kaltquellung unterzogen, um die perfekte Extraktion von Farbe und Fülle zu erhalten. Die Trauben wurden mit großer Sorgfalt verarbeitet, um den Auszug harscher Tannine zu vermeiden und das fruchtige Profil zu erhalten. Ein Teil des Weins wurde in französischer Eiche gereift, während der restliche Teil in Edelstahl ausgebaut wurde.
