De Grendel Merlot

A full bodied wine filled with a combination of different berries on the nose. Mulberry, raspberry, and blackberry fruit accompanied by liquorice and mocha flavours that carry through on palate. Well supported by firm French oak tannins.

Only handpicked fruit was destalked and inoculated in a upright stainless steel tank. To ensure soft ripe tannins, the fermenting red was transferred four times over the skincap for periods lasting 1 hour each. This method is called aerated pump over. After sufficient extraction, a pneumatic press was used to press the skins at 0.9 Bar. Three rackings ensured good clarity. Maturation took place in French Oak for a period of thirteen months.
