Merlot DOC Alto Adige

An excellent Merlot – yet not from Bordeaux

Our Merlot vines find the best conditions on the loamy, sandy soils in the microclimate around Lake Caldaro to produce Merlot wines that can compete with the best the wine world has to offer.

It is a dense garnet-red with a dark core, with aromas of redcurrant jam, cedarwood, tobacco and forest berries. This wine has a close structure on the palate, with robust tannins and a finish that is full of character.

Our Merlot is ideal with hearty braised meat dishes, game and mature cheeses.

Tasting notes:

Deep garnet with an almost black core, typical of Merlot wines.

Complex fragrance of intense black currant jam with hints of cedar, tobacco and mulberry.

Dense structure, robust tannins and a characterful finish.
