The Chevalier Alexis Lichine Merlot is a fine red wine with a smooth, elegant, and long-lasting taste. The tasting notes include cherry, raspberry, and blackcurrant, coupled with an expressive aroma. The taste lingers on the palate to reveal soft and silky tannins. Chevalier Alexis Lichine Merlot appears a rich red garnet when poured. Once well ripe, the grapes are picked, destemmed and crushed. Fermentation up to 12 days at low temperatures to preserve the rich aromas. The character of this wine is in large part due to the pebbly and clay-calcareous soil where the grapes are grown.
