Details and technical informations about Simona Estate's Blanco Dulce.
Discover the grape variety: Merlot blanc
Simple, fresh dry whites, with a pale golden robe, a supple palate with moderate acidity on undemonstrative citrus and white flower aromas. Discreet rustic profile. Almost extinct, preserved in INRAE varietal collections for its patrimonial value, it testifies to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of the Bordeaux region. Rare French white variety, with no genetic link to red Merlot despite the name.
