The Whalehaven Merlot is a silky wine of deep red in the glass and exudes seductive aromas of sweet vanilla, fine spices and red currant. On the palate, this Merlot is extremely complex with delicious nuances of dark forest berries. Extremely complex and lively dynamic, this is a wonderful Merlot with a high pleasure factor!

After two days of cold swelling on the skin, the fermentation process was completed at temperatures between 25°C - 28°C. The malolactic fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks fitted with oak staves. The wine matured for 14 months in small French oak barrels, 33% of which were new wood and 67% second and third wood.
