Merlot.        Vin du Pays wines are well-crafted, simple, and easy to drink, with good expression but not complicated. Aged in barrels for 6 months.        Ruby red, crystalline, and clear.       Clean, straightforward fruit notes like raspberry and cherry, with mineral undertones, damp earth, and mint leaf. Elegant, ripe fruit with sweet tannins and fresh acidity in balance. Sweetness that doesn't overwhelm, with a simple yet correct finish.        Midday meals, pairs well with cold meats, pasta, rice dishes, and soups, or with soft, creamy, and uncured cheeses.        Vin de Pays de L.         France.
