About this wine
A Perfect Union of Merlot & Syrah
Bratanov Merlot & Syrah Quel Mariage 2021 is a beautifully balanced blend showcasing the harmonious marriage of Merlot and Syrah. Deep ruby red in colour, the wine opens with a complex bouquet of ripe blackberries, plums, and a hint of spice, complemented by delicate nuances of vanilla and toasted oak. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with velvety tannins and an elegant structure. Rich, ripe fruit flavours of black cherries, currants, and plums intertwine with layers of subtle smokiness and peppery spice, leading to a long, satisfying finish.
Serve at 16–18°C. This wine pairs wonderfully with grilled meats, roasted lamb, hearty stews, or aged cheeses. It also complements Mediterranean dishes such as moussaka or pasta with rich tomato-based sauces.
Crafted by Bratanov Winery in Bulgaria, who are known for their dedication to quality and distinct character. The grapes are hand-picked from carefully tended vineyards and aged in oak barrels, adding depth and complexity to its flavour profile.
