Veenwouden Vivat Bacchus Merlot 2009

The Vivat Bacchus Merlot shows the qualities that have made this grape variety a favorite.  The nose begins with aromas of ripe plums and cherries. This vintage of Merlot has a mouth feel of black cherry and plum with hints of vanilla with a fruity finish. Soft tannins and moderate acidity makes this an easy drinking wine. Round, soft and juicy.

Serve this wine with pasta, pizza, grilled meat.
