Sommos Colección Merlot Red wine

Sommos Collection Merlot, the objective of this wine is to show a modern Merlot, with certain memories of the great wines of the New World.

Vineyard: We are facing one of our plots planted at a higher height, around 550 meters and also the northernmost, this together with the fact that it is a northern slope, allows us to ripen the Merlot in a gentle way, thus avoiding sunstroke and the usual problems of dehydration.

Soil: Grown on poor, well-structured, porous and vegetation-covered soils.

Vinification: Night mechanized harvest in September. The plots are harvested and vinified separately. Fermentation carried out at 28ºC, with post-fermentative maceration over three weeks. All its movements are carried out by gravity.

Aging: The wine rests for 12 months in a selection of French oak barrels.

Color: Intense cherry red with ruby tones, clean and bright.

Aroma: Aromas of good intensity and quality where well-ripe red fruits, cocoas, with mineral and spicy notes appear.

Mouth: Tasty, structured and perfectly balanced. Highlights include the fruity and spicy tones that give it great complexity in the mouth, very persistent.
