Les Merles Noirs - 2023 - L'île Rouge

Antonin Jamois

The name “Merlot” comes from the little blackbird, which loves to peck at these berries! This wine is very fresh and ultra-fruity—quite a contrast to the typical Bordeaux style. The tannins are gentle and supple, making it perfect with a platter of cold cuts.

100% Merlot from old vines planted in 1993—the estate’s oldest vines. The vines are cultivated organically and planted on fairly poor clay-limestone soils; the plot is protected by a hedge at both the top and bottom. The grapes were harvested by hand. Natural vinification: total destemming, 9 days of maceration with daily pumping over, gentle pressing, and 6 months of aging in tanks. Bottled in late spring 2024, without fining or filtration, and with no added sulfites.
