APPEARANCE:
Inama's "Campo del Lago" merlot has a deep, intense ruby red color.

BOUQUET:
The bouquet is articulated in hints of underbrush, plum, mulberry, a spicy timbre reminiscent of cloves and a vague balsamic trail of pine.

TASTING NOTES:
The mouthfeel recalls underbrush and reveals roasted traces of cocoa and coffee; the sip is soft and round, balanced with freshness and tannin.

SERVING TEMPERATURE:
between 16 and 18°C

FOOD PAIRINGS:
The versatility of merlot makes it suitable for an infinite number of pairings. Excellent with roast pork roast and aged cheeses.

ADDITIONAL NOTES:

The grapes, harvested by hand, are gently destemmed, taking care
not to break the skin of the berries. A pre-fermentative maceration of 24-48 hours is carried out, which is followed by alcoholic fermentation in steel tanks lasting 23-28 days at a controlled temperature not exceeding 28°C. At the end of malolactic fermentation, the wine is aged in barriques (35% new, 45% second passage, 20% third passage) for 12 months. After a 4-month passage in cuve béton, "Campo del Lago" is bottled and aged for at least 12 months before being presented to the market.

The label bears a detail of a frieze taken from a
neoclassical drawing, "The Temple of Jupiter."
