The grapes were hand-harvested and macerated at low temperatures to extract colour, flavour, aromas, and tannins. Fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks using natural and selected yeasts and was maintained at approximately 26°C. The wine was made in an unoaked style to reveal the vibrancy of the cool-climate fruit.

A vibrant Merlot with Morello cherry, blackcurrant, and blackberry aromas layered with hints of spicy nutmeg and aromatic herbs. Smooth on the palate with a soft texture and a long, fine finish.

The 2022 vintage stood out for its balance between health, quality and yield. The temperatures were low in winter but did not affect the buds. However, some frosts in October caused concern, where temperatures were as low as -4°C, but the vines escaped damage. ‘It was a good quality harvest with excellent colour and overall acidity. I am convinced we will have excellent wines ahead of us in 2022’ enthused Manuel Gonzalez Bals, Chief Winemaker.
