Bikicki Lily Merlot 750ml
Bikicki Lily Merlot 750ml
Natural and organic low intervention Merlot from the Fruška Gora region in Serbia.
Think of a row of cherries, then a row of ripe Spanish cherries, then a little home-made patisserie, then fruit again, then vanilla... and so in order, layer by layer, Lily, a powerful merlot, opens up. Full and robust in the mouth, but balanced by quality, vibrant acids. The tannins are powerful, but finely ripe, giving firmness to a persistent fruity finish.
Bikicki’s vineyards are located in the village of Banoštor on the slopes of Mt. Fruška Gora, next to the Danube River. The wine cradle of Serbia, at the 45th degree of north latitude, sharing sun exposure with Bordeaux, Piedmont, the Rhone Valley and the Willamette Valley in Oregon. Once an island in the Pannonian Sea, that gradually dried up 1 million years ago leaving sediment rich soil, now with Vršac Hill the only mountain that rises above the Plain of Vojvodina in Northern Serbia. In Roman times, it was called Alma Mons, which means “fertile mountain”. In the 15th century it was one of the three most famous vineyards in the world, together with Burgundy and Bordeaux.
