Merlot trocken - Käfer

In the glass, the Merlot from Käfer presents a dense purple-red color. The first nose of the Merlot reveals notes of blackberries and plums. The fruity aspects of the bouquet are joined by even more fruity, balsamic nuances.

On the palate, the Merlot from Käfer starts off pleasantly dry, full-bodied and aromatic. The texture of this powerful red wine is wonderfully velvety on the palate. Thanks to the moderate fruit acidity, the Merlot flatters the palate with a pleasing sensation without lacking freshness. The finish of this red wine from the wine-growing region of Sicily is ultimately convincing with a beautiful aftertaste.

Vinification of Käfer Merlot

Here they are sorted and carefully crushed. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. At the end of fermentation, the Merlot can continue to harmonize on the fine lees for a few months.
