Calvet Red Blend Mer-Cab-Syrah

Superb, deep red color with dark purple reflections.

Powerful and complex nose, marrying notes of ripe, jammy fruits with roasted aromas of mocha and vanilla. Rich, full-bodied and dense palate with a harmonious and fruity finish. Best served with braised leg of lamb, tender slices of roast beef, diced veal with mushrooms or on its own.

Available by the case. 6 per case.

Half of the grapes undergo a traditional vinification, and the other half, a hot pre fermentation maceration: the grapes are heated up to 80°C, then they are placed in the vats where the warm maceration continues for 8 to 12 hours. The wine is pumped over, pressed and filtered, and a 20°C vinification takes place. An ingenious blend of both methods. Soil composition is clay-limestone.
