What The Fellas Say
It’s pretty hard to find a wine from Pico Wines that we don’t like and this Merlot is no exception. It’s bloody good. Subtle, deep and light all at the same time, it perfectly balances this classic French grape with the rugged landscape and ocean winds of the island. Savor it on your palate. Drink in those vulcanic afternotes and hear the waves crashing on the rocky shore
Region: Açores
The Açores is home to a small but growing wine industry, with vineyards planted in soils rich in volcanic minerals, imparting a distinctive taste profile to the wines.
What The Sommelier Says
Ruby colour with a wonderfully complex nose of wild berry, subtle hints of pepper wrapped delicately in a light smokiness. An elegant palate, with good acidity and smoothness for a long finish
Pairs well with…
