With this incredibly enjoyable wine, the winemaker aims to showcase just how beautiful a Merlot can be. He cultivates his grapes with love and passion in the warm Languedoc wine region. A beautiful old vineyard nurtures this exquisite red wine. Thanks to extensive work in the vineyard, the Merlot grapes now thrive like no other. But that truly took a lot of time, and the label reflects that. A winemaker with his vines and, of course, the tractor. All these factors have contributed to this red Luc & Jack Merlot.
The harvest of the Merlot for this Luc & Jack
Due to the warm climate, the plants are planted in loose soil. This allows the roots to grow deep down to absorb as much moisture as possible. This is essential, as summers can be very hot in this wine region. Winemakers Luc & Jack begin harvesting at perfect ripeness and gather the grapes in the early morning. This is followed by a gentle pressing to extract the finest juice, which is evident in the pure and smooth flavor.
The aroma and taste of the Luc & Jack Merlot
What a delightful glass of wine this Merlot from Luc & Jack is! The aroma begins with berries, ripe strawberries, and cherries. Swirl the wine well and you'll notice even more diversity, with notes of spice, toffee, and stewed plums. The palate is delicious, smooth, and perfectly full-bodied. Beautiful nuances of red and black fruit, with blackberries, strawberries, and raspberries taking center stage. The back of the tongue reveals even more notes, with a dose of red blossom, a touch of citrus, blackberries, and a hint of fresh currants! What a gem, and for this price! Kudos to Luc & Jack.
