Domaine de Merlet 2010

Award: Silver Medal, Grands Vins de France Competition, Mâcon 2013
This exquisite wine reveals notes of red fruit (morello cherries, blackcurrants) and cedar on the nose, which emerge harmoniously after swirling. A red wine that displays lovely tension on the palate, a firm tannic structure, and a long finish, where the fruit predominates, beautifully supported by expert aging.
