Château Julia Merlot Domaine Costa Lazaridi

Château Julia Merlot by Domain Costa Lazaridi is a red wine from Drama with velvety texture, ripe fruit and a calmer, elegant strength. It is not one of those red wines that shout; it builds character with black fruit, soft tannins and a sweet spicy sensation that makes it instantly friendly at the table.

In the glass it reveals plum, black cherry, blackberry, liquorice, vanilla, smoke and subtle oak notes. Ageing in French oak barrels gives it depth, roundness and a more complex profile, without losing the juicy side of Merlot.

On the palate it is dry, soft and full-bodied, with ripe tannins, balanced acidity and a long, fruity finish. Try it with veal giouvetsi, pork with prunes, mushrooms, grilled meats, tomato-based stews or soft mature cheeses. A Merlot with pure finesse, lovely structure and that relaxed elegance that makes it enjoyable to drink without feeling heavy.
