Characteristics: This Merlot has a fresh and young bright ruby color. The color is light and lively, it still has to grow up in a bottle for some time.

A fruity and berry aroma develops as soft notes of wild herbs and spices begin to emerge. In the mouth, the wine is dry and medium-bodied, at the same time, quite light and warm. Acids and tannins are perfectly balanced. Light velvety and minerality appear shortly before the very end. The aftertaste is not long, but rather rounded.
