About this wine
Miolo Terroir Merlot from Vale dos Vinhedos is a full-bodied, dry red, combining ripe red and dark fruit with gentle spice and usually a subtle oak note. Merlot performs well in Brazil’s cooler, hilly south, giving a rounded palate, soft to ripe tannins and modest acidity. The precise balance of fruit and oak may vary by vintage.
