DUO by Enira 2019
The nose is a perfect balance between the fruitiness of the Merlot and the toasty aromas of the Syrah. More woody on the nose when shaken. The mouth is middle to full-bodied with the strength of the Merlot and the velvetines of the Syrah. This wine will surely develop more strength when it will be 2-3 years older but it already has such an established balance.
Grape varieties:
Merlot: 60%
Syrah: 40%
Tasting notes:
Deep ink, ruby colour. Fascinating aromas dominated by plum, blackberry, cherry, herbs, toasted bread and cacao. Medium structure, roundness and balance in taste. Captivating and fruity final.
