In vineyard
The vineyards are selected with the best exposure to sun to ensure a perfect ripening of the fruit. The grapes of merlot are left in the plant for slight over-ripening that confers to the wine a decisive aromatic charge and an enveloping structure.
In cellar
The grapes are vinified at a temperature of 25°C to enhance the intensity of the color, while maceration continues for over 18 days. It follows alcoholic fermentation in steel tanks and a passage in large barrel, where the malolactic fermentation takes place and gives pleasant aromas and noble tannins of wood.
In tasting
Merlot Drago Rosso has a deep ruby red color. The bouquet has a strong aromatic charge balanced by enveloping scents reminiscent of red fruit, such as cherry and blueberry, accompanied by light spicy notes. The palate is full and balanced by a good structure. The light tannins give a persistent and harmonious ending.
Pairings
Perfect to taste during a barbecue with red meat or game with friends. Try it also in pair with salami and/or spicy cheeses. Serving temperature 18°C.
