Merlot Barique 2004

Merlot Barrique stands out as one of the most enjoyable wines from our cellar. Its colour captivates with cherry-red hues and a crimson sheen, while the aroma is intense and rich, with pronounced fruity and spicy notes. The bouquet reveals aromas of forest berries, ripe plums, and roses. The wine is dry, warm, and harmonious, with a range of tertiary aromas typical of long aging in wooden barrels. Full-bodied and robust, with a high proportion of dry extract. It pairs excellently with smoked cured meat products, where its complexity comes even more strongly to the fore.
