Details and technical informations about Winery Mas Levigné's Merlot.
Discover the grape variety: Raisaine
Simple, fresh dry whites with a pale golden robe, a supple palate and preserved acidity, with understated aromas of white flowers, citrus (lemon) and herbal notes. A rustic profile now almost absent from commercial viticulture. Preserved in INRAE varietal collections, it bears witness to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of the South-West. Rare French white grape, once grown in the South-West and studied for its heritage value.

The word of the wine: Liquid
Sweet wine containing more than 50 grams of residual sugar per liter. Sweet wines are made from grapes often affected by botrytis cinerea and concentrated either by passerillage (drying of the grapes on the vine stock), or after the harvest (straw wines), or by the cold (ice wines).
