Description

Weingut Esterhazy's Merlot Ried Schneiderteil 2017 is a full-bodied and complex wine with intense flavors of dark fruits, spices, and oak. The grapes are grown in the prestigious Ried Schneiderteil vineyard and undergo traditional fermentation with extended maceration and barrel aging in French oak for 20 months.

The grapes for this wine are grown in the Ried Schneiderteil vineyard, which is known for producing high-quality Merlot grapes. After harvest, the grapes undergo traditional fermentation with extended maceration, which helps extract maximum color and flavor from the skins. The wine is then aged for 20 months in French oak barrels, which imparts complex flavors of vanilla, toast, and spice.
