Grape history: Throughout the history of Merlot wine, there has been a love hate relationship with the Merlot grape. Merlot grapes are large and thin skinned which makes them a prime target for birds. In fact, the history of Merlot wine is dotted with stories of crops being destroyed by flocks of hungry birds.

Winemaking: The whole grapes are chilled in our exclusive cooling tunnel with immediate drop in temperature and consequent cold maceration of the skin peels; After destemming, cold maceration on the skins in stainless steel vats for 12 hours and soft crushing in inerted environment;· Cold static decantation at 14 °c for 24 – 48 hours.

Organoleptic evaluation and food pairing: Great Italian white from Tenuta Ulisse, increasingly establishing itself among the best PQR wineries in the Costa Rican market. Incredibly fruit forward on the nose, almost a fruit salad of tropical melon, papaya, passion fruit and pineapple aromas balanced by a few green apple, lime and grass hints. On the palate, light-bodied, rather fresh and simple, dry with good grapefruit driven acidity (a bit more would be even better) and a bit of a spicy punch from the 13% ABV. Beautiful, fresh, easy summer white!
