Product Notes

Mersel Phoenix Skin Contact Merwah is a unique and captivating wine that showcases the rich flavors and aromas of the Merwah grape variety. Grown in the heart of Lebanon's Bekaa Valley, this wine is crafted with minimal intervention to preserve the natural characteristics of the fruit. The grapes undergo a skin contact fermentation, resulting in a beautiful orange hue and an intriguing texture. On the palate, notes of ripe stone fruits, citrus zest, and hints of spice mingle with a subtle tannic grip. This wine is perfect for those seeking an adventurous and complex wine drinking experience.
