Tomasella Merlot

Silky. Juicy. Effortlessly drinkable.

From the sunlit vineyards of Friuli Grave, Tomasella’s Merlot is a polished and approachable red, crafted with care from sustainably farmed vines. This wine reflects the estate’s commitment to quality and thoughtful viticulture, offering a classic Merlot profile with a Northern Italian twist.

In the glass, it shows a deep ruby-red hue, opening to aromas of black cherries, plums, and subtle hints of cocoa and spice. On the palate, it is soft and velvety, with smooth tannins, a fresh acidity, and a long, balanced finish. Tomasella Merlot is elegant yet easygoing, combining richness with approachability for everyday enjoyment.

For Irish wine lovers, it pairs beautifully with grilled meats, pasta dishes with rich sauces, or a selection of aged cheeses. It’s a versatile red that brings the character and warmth of Friuli directly to Ireland’s tables.

Why we love it:
We love this Merlot for its smoothness and harmonious balance. It’s a wine that delivers ripe fruit and gentle tannins with finesse — a polished, approachable expression of Friuli that feels at home on any Irish table.
