Merlot: Intense and Velvety

Do you know anyone who during quarantine, became the king or queen of online events? They just might have the same personality as our Reserva Merlot Orgánico. In the blog we’ll tell you all about this wine and recommendations for this famous grape.

We like to imagine our wines with personality and character. Merlot is like that relaxed friend, the one who only likes to go to small parties with friends, or get-togethers at houses; they play an instrument and enjoy board games and time with friends and family. If we imagine the ideal activity for our Merlot, it’s a getaway to the country with friends for a long weekend. There is no better way to pass the time than cooking together, taking long walks, or spending the afternoon playing cards or games like Dixit or Catan. 

If we think about the soundtrack for these perfect moments, the complete works of The Beatles would be the best bet for our Merlot. Or pop-rock from groups like Coldplay.

If you’re looking for a quarantine-friendly activity, video calls with best friends are a good fit, as well as virtual museum visits, or Live events on Instagram. Because this personality is also studious and a little introverted, they probably excelled as a student of online classes during the past year.

But they’re also enthusiastic and idealist, with their head in the clouds. They enjoy fantasy novels and science fiction, both in movies and books. For example, Netflix series like Dark or Stranger Things would be their favorite. Movies like Arrival, about the arrival of aliens who need to pass on an important message to the human race, or the award-winning Life of Pi, about a young Indian man lost at sea on a lifeboat with a Bengal tiger, would be other great options.

For books, Good Omens, by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman tells the story of two angels who are trying to stop the end of the world. Classics like The Lord of the Rings is always on their list, telling the tale of a hobbit who must protect a powerful ring from dark forces who want to take it away. 

And we can’t forget that every wine needs the perfect food to accompany it, and dishes like baked chicken, pizza, and exquisite cheese empanadas are the perfect pairing. In general, homemade dishes go well with our Merlot.

And if you want to t know where our Reserva Merlot Orgánico comes from, it begins in our Casablanca vineyard, where the ocean breeze and the unique soil characteristics make ideal conditions for this grape. The result is a fresher Merlot, thanks to the cooler climate. This wine has intense aromas of blackberry and raspberry, with hints of spice and a subtle note of toast.
