Flavour notes

The flavour profile is led by fruit: ripe red fruits, dark cherry, plum and a sweet hint of blackcurrant jam. On the palate, berry notes come through with a touch of liquorice, while some tasting impressions also point to spicy accents such as clove.

The tannins are described as soft, with a full and complex structure. Ripe fruit is balanced by freshness, and the French oak barrique maturation adds depth without pushing the fruit into the background.

Product info about Cuvee Hoenshof Merlot/dornfelder

Cuvée Hoenshof Merlot/Dornfelder is a fine example of Belgian red wine finding its own identity. It comes from Wijndomein Hoenshof in Borgloon, in Limburg's Haspengouw region, where the focus is on grape varieties that can ripen well in Belgium's cooler climate while keeping freshness and structure.

Merlot forms an important part of the blend, but the wine gains its particular shape from dornfelder and, according to the producer information, cabernet cortis. Dornfelder is used for softness and fruit, while cabernet cortis serves here as a related alternative to cabernet sauvignon. Rather than copying a warmer-climate red blend, this cuvée gives that idea a Belgian interpretation: ripe fruit, freshness and a rounded frame.

The red grapes undergo three weeks of skin maceration before the wine matures in French oak barriques. That gives time for colour, flavour and structure to develop, while keeping the fruit-driven nature of the wine in focus. At Drankenshop Broekmans, this is the kind of bottle we like to highlight for customers exploring Belgian wine beyond the more familiar white and sparkling styles.

Hoenshof suggests pairing it with rabbit, prunes and croquettes, a match that makes sense with the wine's dark fruit, gentle tannins and fuller structure.

The flavour profile is led by fruit: ripe red fruits, dark cherry, plum and a sweet hint of blackcurrant jam. On the palate, berry notes come through with a touch of liquorice, while some tasting impressions also point to spicy accents such as clove.

The tannins are described as soft, with a full and complex structure. Ripe fruit is balanced by freshness, and the French oak barrique maturation adds depth without pushing the fruit into the background.
