Max Barreau Merlot Red Wine 750ml

Bordeaux | 100% Merlot | 12.5% ABV | Wild Yeast | Unfiltered A fresh, lifted take on Bordeaux Merlot, MCO2 is a lively and aromatic expression crafted from 40-year-old vines, fermented with wild yeasts and bottled unfiltered to preserve purity and texture. Made using carbonic maceration, it offers a bright and energetic profile—far from the heavy-handed stereotypes often associated with the grape.

On the palate, it’s fresh and zippy, showing medium-plus acidity, low tannins, and a core of red berry fruit and plum, wrapped in a silky, minimalist frame.
