Information about "Protea Merlot 2021"
The Protea Merlot enchants with a vibrant bouquet of dark cherries, ripe plums, and fragrant berries, complemented by enticing notes of dark chocolate and cocoa. This full-bodied, opulent Merlot unfolds layers of juicy dark fruit alongside delicate hints of tobacco leaves on the palate, delivering an elegantly rich and sensual tasting experience. With refined harmony and balance, it features a generous, velvety finish that lingers delightfully.
Die Trauben für den Protea Merlot wurden mit großer Sorgfalt und jeder Menge Know-how per Hand gelesen. Bei Ankunft in der Kellerei wurde das Traubengut entrappt und angequetscht, woraufhin der Saft in 10.000 l Fässer aus französischer Eiche und in 10.000 l Tanks aus Edelstahl gefüllt wurde. Die Gärung auf der Haut bei geregelten 26°C dauerte 15 Tage lang an. Anschließend reifte der Wein 12 Monate in Kontakt mit französischer Eichenholz-Staven.
