Vinification of the Monro Merlot Reserve from Villiera Wines

The grapes for the Monro Merlot Reserve come from hand-picked vineyards that are managed according to the highest ecological standards. The wine is exclusively vinified from selected Merlot grapes, which are harvested at their optimal ripeness. The harvest is done by hand, ensuring only the best grapes make their way into the vinification process. After arrival at the winery, the grapes are destemmed and gently pressed. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve the freshness and fruit aromas of the grapes. This is followed by malolactic fermentation, which gives the wine its characteristic roundness. After fermentation, the wine matures for several months in high-quality French oak barrels, where it develops additional complexity and elegance. During maturation, the wine is regularly checked to ensure the perfect balance between fruit and wood.

A cheese board featuring aged cheddar and blue cheese, which highlights the fruity notes of the wine.
