Montrot, Merlot, 2020 11% * on order *

Faced with the east, as soon as the sun rises, the sun shines through the 1.5 ha vineyard of the estate Mount, in a privileged environment where the grapes are grown with good ventilation and a good drainage.

Because the temperature rarely exceeds 30 degrees during the day and drops below 20 degrees at night, this gives the vineyard an efficiency of photosynthesis and, therefore, a moderate acidity of the wine that tends to subsist and a sugar content. To increase.

The temperature accumulated in Yoichi is similar to that of northern Burgundy and Alsace. That's why Mr. Yamanaka, our winemaker, cultivates only 5,000 feet of Pinot Gray, one of the most successful varieties in Alsace. It avoids as much as possible to use pesticides and especially insecticides because it respects insects as wild yeast carriers.

For the Montrelot 2020 cuvée, our winemaker makes the Merlot grape cultivate by two vineyards under contract, the vineyards soma farm and aki vineyard. This cuvée offers a surprising dress, orange red. The nose is open, frank, fruity, incredible aromatic, purple, pink, strawberry, cherries, giving it almost an eastern character.

The palate is supple, round tannic, silky, elegant. This free wine, very beautiful, will accompany a red mug, a virgin sauce, grilled red meats, a velvety mushroom, a dried pork chest, the eel dishes, the grilled Yakitori chicken, the sauces based on Soy sauce.
