Description
At Bouchon our Winemaker has chosen to use oak barrels just enough to enhance the flavors of his Merlot without allowing the oak to dominate the varietal character. This requires careful attention to fermentation and to aging. Each wine is tasted repeatedly to determine how much of the oak has influenced the flavor. Only an experienced winemaker, tasting from barrel, can predict what the wine will be like when all of the flavors have been harmonized after the wine has been bottled and held for additional maturing in the bottle.
