Fortant de France - Terroir Littoral - Merlot | French Red Wine

This coastal terroir, under the favourable influence of the Mediterranean climate, provides a unique location for viticulture. The ambient humidity and gentle sea breezes caress the vines whose roots plunge into soil composed of limestone and alluvial deposits that date back to the Quaternary period.

TERROIR:
The coastal terroir is sunny and bountiful, offering delectable, exuberant wines with flavours of citrus, red and tropical fruit. Boasting relatively young and rather fertile soils, this terroir, with the help of modern viticultural and winemaking techniques, is well-suited to bringing out all of the aromas and flavours of each grape variety as well as those produced during fermentation such as thiols, terpenes and esters.
