Paşaeli 2013 6N Karasakiz-Merlot Red (Aegean)

Country: Turkey / 6N Karasakiz-Merlot
Variety: Red Blend Aegean
Winery: Paşaeli /

Made from 89% of the indigenous grape Karasakiz and 11% Merlot, this wine presents scents of strawberry and orange blossom. It comes on bright with flavors of cherry and clementine, but as smooth tannins coat the mouth, notes of anise, violet and smoke join the chorus. The finish is also bright, with lingering flavors of smoke and flowers.
