About this wine
Mersel Jaffa Crush, a carbonic still orange wine from Lebanon, deep amber with a slight haze, floral and fragrant with ripe apricot, orange zest, jasmine and honeyed spice, textural and layered with saline minerality and a long, earthy finish.
Serve chilled at 10°C.
Tasting notes
Deep amber-orange with a slight haze. Floral and fragrant on the nose, with ripe apricot, orange zest, jasmine petals and warm honey-laced spices. Textural and layered on the palate, offering stone fruit, citrus peel, dried herbs and subtle tannins framed by saline minerality. The finish is long, earthy and refreshing. Whole-berry carbonic maceration on the Muscat is combined with skin contact Merwah and ageing in amphora, which is what gives it both the lift and the texture.
Goes with
Spiced mezze, grilled seafood, roasted vegetables, citrus driven salads, Middle Eastern flatbreads, and fresh cheeses.
