Teillery Merlot

Hand-picked grapes, short maceration and controlled fermentation in stainless steel tank at 24C to 26C. Secondary malolactic fermentation is produced in a natural way, with 6 months in stainless steel tanks.

Brilliant, with pale straw yellow and green shades, nice creamy bubbles. Notes of apple and pear, mineral sensation at the end and light scent of bread crust, ample, with fine quality. Creamy, with fresh yellow pulp fruit bouquet, an impressive length and a unique harmony. Animae has a soft taste of yeast due to the long Charmat fermentation.

Pairs well with shell fish, oysters both raw or boiled, fish and pasta with light vegetable sauce such as Fettuccine Alfredo.
