Merlot Superior 2021
D.O. Central Valley, Central Valley, Chile
100% Merlot | 13% ABV
We are delighted to present this Chilean red wine made from 100% Merlot grapes in the Central Valley region of Chile. It displays deep ruby red, with hints of violet hues at the rim. Familia Correa Lisoni's Superior Line is characterized by a greater respect for the fruit and selected fine wood, to deliver a wine of excellent price-quality ratio.
On the nose soft aromas of wildflowers are notable leading to a burst of red fruit flavours on the palate. Raspberry and strawberry come through before finishing with soft plum flavours. Delicate tannins and good acidity give this well-rounded flavoured wine a balanced finish.
Service: Serve at 18°C.
Food Pairing: Great with beef, cheese, game, pasta in tomato sauce and vegetarian dishes.
Wine maker & CEO Jose Tomás Correa Lisoni works hard producing world-class wines, that are sold on the five continents. He believes "Imposing a distinctive seal of perfect balance between fresh fruit, terroir and balanced vinification to deliver a high-quality product" is what his winery stands for.
This family-owned 5th generation winery is at 500 Hectares spread over three different wine regions: Colchagua, Rapel, and Maule Valley. The Chilean Central Valley is a South American area that includes some of the country’s largest regions. Because of its size, there are several climates and soil types that can be found in the Central Valley, which allows for a vast variety of grapes to thrive here.
Generally, the climate is cool with dry summers and mild
winters. This creates the ideal circumstances to grow just about anything – which is why the Central Valley is the
major producing area of Chile. Although the region often experiences droughts, floods, volcanic eruptions, and
earthquakes, the vines are capable of overcoming it all.
