100% Merlot from Colle Santa Lucia di Breganze

The grapes are placed in cassettes with extreme care and are left to dry for 15 days before being de-stemmed. The grape stalk is removed totally and they are pressed. The grapes are left to macerate for 11 days by plunging and frequent racking. A part of the fermentation takes place in stainless steel vats with the must, the other is fermented in barriques for a second passage of 6/12 months. Blended in the spring of the prior year, the wine does not endure an aggressive filtration, which sometimes creates light sediment in the bottle.

Ruby red wine, rich and profound, produced from Merlot grapes. With a fragrance of small red ripe fruit, spices, coffee and vanilla. A full-bodied wine, dry, rich with sweet tannins giving it a long persistence. It is an ageing wine, ideally for 5 - 6 years. It matches particularly with grilled or braised red meat and mature cheese.
