TW Wines Gisborne Merlot 2024
Rich flavours with soft, velvety tannins
Rich flavours with soft, velvety tannins
Description
Oak, Plum, Spice
Deep dark aubergine, this inky Merlot has intense flavours of juicy ripe black berry and currant. Aromas of dark berry jus lead into a wonderfully bright and fruitful palate that delights the tastebuds. The delicate acidity highlights the dark berry flavours and adds wonderful length to the palate.
After excellent February and March ripening conditions these perfect Merlot grapes were quickly harvested and delivered to the winery and then gently destemmed. Partially crushed berries were then plunged twice daily in a small open fermenter while complexity enhancing yeast conducted the ferment. Once dry, the skins were pressed from the wine, and the wine was transferred to American and French barriques for malolactic fermentation. After 9 months maturation in barrel, the wine was gently fined before being filtered and bottled.
Food Pairing: A fruity red, great for all seasons sipping, delightful with smoky vegetables, barbeque meats and your favourite pizza or pasta.
