52% Merlot, 28% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Cabernet Franc
TASTING NOTES:
This fresh, pleasant red wine appeals immediately by its bright cherry red colour with purple tints. On the nose, this Bordeaux offers plenty of finesse with peppery notes that give way to aromas of redcurrant and strawberry. On the palate it demonstrates its ample, harmonious structure, with a red fruit and cherry-stone finish.

BRAND NAME: Château Merlet
Owned by the Bonhur family since 1978, Château Merlet stands close to the Dordogne and Garonne rivers, in the little village of Cazaugitat, which means summer garden in «Occitan», the regional dialect. Located 45 km south-east of Bordeaux, in the heart of the Entre-deux-Mers region, this 48 hectare vineyard is set around the highest top of the Gironde, enjoying remarkable exposure to the sun.
