Merlot was added to the Cantus Primus range in 2020 to highlight the quality of the wines that can be made from this variety in Dealu Mare. The Dealu Mare wine region was hit by hail towards the end of spring. This factor had a major impact on the crops, halving the harvest. Grapes enjoyed access to more mineral, physico-chemical and high sugar content resources.
