Discover the grape variety: Merlot
Merlot is a red grape variety with small black berries that appeared at the end of the 18th century. It is produced in most of the Bordeaux terroirs, where it represents 58% of the planted area, and its best terroir is located in Pomerol and Saint-Emilion on cool, clay-limestone soils. At the mythical Château Pétrus, the wine is made with 95% Merlot, with a dark, dense colour, aromas of red and black fruits and a superb range of flavours, the Merlot transforms during its ageing to give way to notes of prunes, undergrowth and spices. On the palate, it is supple with distinguished tannins. It is often blended with Cabernet Sauvignon. Merlot is no longer exclusive to Bordeaux, it is nowadays vinified all over the world.

The wine region of San José
San Jose, in South-western Uruguay, is one of the country's 19 administrative departments. Located immediately west of the Uruguayan capital of Montevideo, it enjoys the climatic benefits of its position on the northern banks of the Rio de la Plata estuary. Seventy miles (113km) to the west, at the apex of the vast estuary, is the confluence of the Parana and Uruguay rivers, and just south of that is Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina. San Jose vineyards produce white wines from a number of international wine Grape varieties including Pinot Blanc (although some authorities have suggested that these vines might in fact be Chenin Blanc), Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay.
The word of the wine: Basic wine
Dry, still wine intended for the production of sparkling wines (champagne, crémants, etc.). The basic wines undergo a second fermentation in the bottle for the production of carbon dioxide, and therefore of bubbles.
