A varietal Merlot from Rodrigues Zele under the Pays d'Oc IGP, the vast Languedoc-Roussillon designation created to allow varietal labelling. The Mediterranean sun makes it riper and softer than Bordeaux Merlot: plum and black cherry with a touch of cocoa and dried herb, medium-bodied with soft, supple tannins and an easy finish. Reliable value made for early drinking.
