Château Julia Merlot

With the guidance of Michel Rolland, the cosmopolitan Merlot from the Estate’s vineyards reveals the more robust side of its character.

Protected Geographical Indication Drama

Varietal Composition : Merlot 100%

Tasting Notes

Solid, deep red.

Enchanting alternation of impressions. Redcurrant, cherry jam, mint chocolate, ink and cedar are only some of the identifiable aromas.

Fleshy, rich, almost plethoric, with abundant fruit supporting the well integrated tannins. The theoretically high alcohol is balanced by the acidity and expressed mainly as sweetness and volume. Long finish with notes of chocolate.

Food Pairing

Red meats grilled or cooked, big roast poultry, like turkey or goose, hairy game, piglet in the oven, soft crusty cheeses.

Ageing

Enjoy it for 7-8 years.

Alcohol : 14,5% Vol.

Skin contact and fermentation in stainless steel tanks bring out the character of the variety and the vineyard.
