The combination of our rocky soil, day to night temperature change at the elevation of 500 metres above the sea level, low and controlled production at optimum harvest maturity has allowed us to develop a rigorous Merlot, very traditional, balanced, with marked acidity, fresh and Mediterranean on the palate, where 9 months of aging in French oak aligns well with the fruit. Despite the acknowledged difficulty of obtaining a quality single-variety Merlot, our wine has been rated as 'impressive'.
