mehrere Informationen

The False Bay Peacock Wild Ferment Merlot flows into the glass in a beautiful ruby red colour and exudes inviting aromas of blackcurrants, ripe plums and perfume-like fragrance as well as subtle hints of pencil shavings and green herbs. On the palate, the aromas already sniffed by the nose pamper the palate in the form of delicious taste nuances in combination with a fresh play of acids, well-integrated tannin and excellent length.

Treatment in the cellar

The grapes for this delicious Merlot were destemmed and fermented in wood. During the fermentation process there were gentle "punch-downs" twice a day. After the fermentation was completed, the wine spent 30 days on the skin to help the tannins integrate and transfer maximum colour to the wine. The wine matured for 9 months in third and fourth filled French oak barrels.
