Naturae Merlot Organic vegan red wine without sulphites 2025 75cl

Naturae is a range of organic wines with no added sulphites, offering particularly pure, generous and indulgent aromas. Each cuvée, whose composition is reduced to the essentials, expresses the character and flavour of the fruit and terroir. This wine was born from the expertise of Gérard Bertrand and his oenologists, who possess unique expertise in sulphite-free winemaking. The wines are grown according to organic standards, which requires grapes of exceptional quality. Naturae is also a vegan range for consumers concerned about animal welfare. Intense and fruity, Naturae will provide you with a unique varietal experience while respecting the environment. Work begins in the vineyard with a precise and meticulous selection of the plots best suited to producing this type of wine. 90% of the result stems from this precise work: the grapes must be in perfect health, the foliage must be healthy, fresh and dense, and the grapes must have reached an optimal level of ripeness. Indeed, the harvesting window is very narrow, as the acid/sugar balance and tannin ripeness are crucial for this category of wines. Red winemaking is very traditional, except that we use neither SO2 nor any other oenological input. The grapes are destemmed, then the maceration phase lasts around 10 days, during which extraction is carried out solely through daily pump-overs to encourage fruit expression. Pressing then takes place, taking care to separate the press wines, after which the wines are racked to remove the coarsest lees before malolactic fermentation. The wines are then racked again and chilled to ensure good stability in the tank.

Serve at 16°C with a risotto or a vegetable wok.
