Veenwouden Merlot 2000

The Veenwouden Merlot 2000 has a rich dense black/purple colour and offers luxurious levels of extract, texture and richness. Glorious aromas of crushed blackberries, blueberries and ripe cherries are followed by hints of chocolate, coffee and vanilla. The thick juicy concentration has a wealth of fruit and glycerine, wonderful ripe sweet tannins and ends with a very long, delicious finish.
