The Merlot
Toscana Merlot I.G.T This wine is made from 100% Merlot grapes from the Chiusurli vineyard at 320 metres a.s.l. The very rigorous selection is followed by vinification in steel with subsequent ageing in tonneaux. A very intense red colour, the bouquet has small red fruits and light nuances of tobacco.
The taste is full and intriguing, with a balanced acidity on the finish.
