Merlot 2020

Domaine A

Merlot 2020

Domaine A Merlot is a rare one. Made only when the vintage is perfect, this wine is produced in tiny quantities using all of Domaine A’s famed traditional winemaking methods.

Our 2020 Merlot presents a deep ruby hue with aromas of dried red currants, spices and baked root vegetables. The palate is plush, textural and juicy—stewed plums, cinnamon stick, ripe red current and dried mint leaves. Soft tannins give way to a good finishing acid line and structure.

Best Drinking

Now through to 2036.

Seasoned and new French oak barriques.

Conditions in 2020 were perfect for Merlot: smooth tannin, great depth and complexity.
