Edi Simcic Kozana Merlot Single Vinyard 2018

A top Merlot from Slovenia that is second to none

In the glass, the Kozana Merlot shows a deep opaque ruby red color. Intense aromas of ripe black cherries, plums, but also licorice and smokier notes of coffee and tobacco on the nose. The variety of aromas is rounded off by floral notes of violets. This excellent red wine from Slovenia takes us on a unique journey of aromas.
Its full strength and vitality emerge in the mouth. The Edi Simcic Kozana Merrlot playfully combines maturity and youth and it is immediately clear that this wine has great storage potential.
Pure luxury in the mouth, dry, full and ripe, grippy tannins. Pleasant acidity, subtle sweetness. We perceive the fruity notes of red fruits again, combined with chocolate and delicate notes of burnt wood. The floral component also remains. With Kozana Merlot we see how the potential of this beautiful grape variety can be realized.
It should be decanted. This way he can show himself completely and shine.
