Art Series Merlot 2016

This variety always ages gracefully and the longest in my opinion from our vineyard.  Aroma's of cherries, cranberries, raspberry and cedar oak.  Leading into a palate that is rich, rounded and full of pomegranite, santa rosa plums and grippy tannins to finish.  
Food Matches:  This wine is best served as an aperitif or alternatively would perfectly accompany a variety of Steak and Lamb dishes.
Winemaking Notes:  After harvesting in late April, the fruit was destemmed and chilled prior to inoculation and fermentation in half-ton open fermenters for 14 days at slightly lower temperatures to retain maximum aromatics and varietal flavours.  After fermentation was finished, the must was gently basket pressed into French oak, where it was aged for 12 months.  During the aging process, the wine is racked three times and bottled without any fining or filtration.
Harvest Date: 8th of April 2016 Drinking Window: 2017 -2035
