Il Merlot 2017

Toscana Merlot IGT

ONE GRAPE

Merlot 2017, deep ruby red in color, is a deep and refined wine.

It has aromas of blackberry and red plum. This is followed by notes of undergrowth and wild berries, balsamic and vanilla nuances.

It presents a very classy palate, a voluminous and velvety body.

Very persistent reminiscence of blueberry, flower and spice aromas.
