Bustan Merlot ’02

Bustan Merlot is produced from grapes hand harvested from carefully chosen parts of selected vineyards. The grapes were grown and harvested in accordance with instructions from the winery after which they were subject to very strict sorting. Following fermentation, the wine was aged for 22 months in oak barrels, and more than a year in bottles. Fewer than 100 cases of this wine were produced. The process of vinification is one of minimal intervention, without fining or filtration.
