Wine: Fréa 2023 La Dure Lutte

Varietal: Merlot

Region: France

Size: 750mL

Notes: “La Dure Lutte” takes Bordeaux Merlot and flips it on its head. Taking their organically-grown Merlot grapes and letting it macerate on skins for 5 days, they ensure an explosion of fresh, red fruit notes on the nose and palate. Much lighter than your average Bordeaux, it drinks like a “glou glou”-style light red wine. This is the fun, juicy Bordeaux gateway wine that will make everyone scream “I AM drinking ***** Merlot!”
