Winemaker Notes
This vintage of Stout Merlot is a vivid expression of estate-grown excellence, reaffirming why wines from this region are so highly sought after. The volcanic, iron-rich mountain soils and consistent sun exposure contribute to a vibrant bouquet of berries and florals, subtly enhanced by a hint of coffee. On the palate, it presents a tapestry of juicy pomegranate and sweet baking spices framed by fine-grained tannins that offer a lush, textured sensation. Notes of wet slate add a touch of elegance, leading to a lively and fresh finish.
