It is time for some Merlot on this #MerlotThursday.
Purple in color with a purplish rim.
Very aromatic nose of blue fruits and sweet cherries.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with blueberries, plums, cherries, light earth, herbs and spices.
Tangy finish with soft tannins and cherries.
This is a very tasty Merlot. A very unique wine from Bolgheri, Italy. Nicely balanced and easy drinking.
Still young, and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly.
Nice to see such low alcohol from this region.
Good by itself or with food.
A blend of 70% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc and 5% Sangiovese.
Aged in ceramic vats for 8 months.
13% alcohol by volume.
90 points.
$45.
