Mersel Leb Nat 2021 Gold

$30.00

Mersel Leb Nat 2021 — Gold

Tasting Notes

Appearance: Pale to medium-gold with a slight amber rim reflecting light oxidation typical of natural winemaking.
Nose: Fresh orchard fruit—ripe pear, yellow apple—lifted by lemon zest, dried chamomile, and a faint honeyed note. Subtle savory/earthy hints of wet stone and thyme.
Palate: Medium-bodied with a tactile, slightly oily texture. Flavors echo pear and stone fruit, with bright citrus acidity balancing a gentle tannic grip. A light phenolic note and mineral seam carry through to a long, savory finish with a delicate saline impression.
Mouthfeel: Rounded but energetic; moderate alcohol and balanced acidity make it food-friendly.

Food Pairing

Charcuterie: Marinated olives, aged hard cheeses (Pecorino, Manchego), and a mild washed-rind cheese.
Small plates: Citrus-marinated shrimp, herb-roasted chicken, or a Niçoise-style salad.

Serving

Temperature: Serve slightly chilled (50–55°F)
Decanting: Short decant (30 minutes) can open aromatics, especially if the bottle shows reduction.
