The Merlot grapes for this red wine from Domaine du Bosquet were cultivated with great care and finesse. The vines are planted at the foot of the hills, ensuring the grapes receive ample sunshine and sufficient coolness for a wonderfully fresh wine. Throughout the growing season, all the grapes are carefully monitored and meticulously cared for. Nothing is too good for these little gems on the vines. When the Merlot grapes are perfectly ripe, the harvest begins very early in the morning. Under the winemaker's strict supervision, all the bunches are transported in small crates to the winery so that pressing can begin. Before the grapes reach the press, they are carefully inspected and destemmed. Only the finest grapes are used to create this fantastic red wine. After vinification, this red wine is aged for six months in oak barrels for added body and finesse.
We can't wait to try this red wine from Domaine du Bosquet! In the glass, we see a deep, dark red with a purple rim, characteristic of a fine Merlot. The aroma offers a harmonious interplay of ripe plums, blackcurrant jam, and vanilla. The palate is silky smooth and warm, with beautiful nuances of black fruit interspersed with notes of tobacco, cloves, cinnamon, and a touch of toasted oak. The finish is smooth, warm, and sultry. What a superb wine for this price range!
