Cool and rainy conditions persisted through spring and summer, resulting in a low yield of fruit that retained remarkable acidity and freshness. The wine from this vintage is distinctive, showcasing lower alcohol, softer tannins, and a lighter body than what is typically expected from Merlot. To highlight its exceptional brightness and fruit-forward character, it was aged for 12 months in gently used 1-2 year-old barrels.

The wine delights with vibrant flavors of fresh strawberry and raspberry, elegantly accented by a delicate hint of spice. This unique and limited production includes only 1,400 bottles and 60 magnums, making it a rare and special offering.

All wines are sold in 6-bottle cases. Please note that a quantity of 1 in your basket corresponds to one case of 6 bottles.
