Insieme Merlot Organic Red Wine IGT

Appearance: It presents itself with a clear and medium-intensity appearance, showcasing a brilliant ruby red color.

Nose: It reveals a pronounced and clean bouquet, offering a delightful variety of aromas. Fragrances of ripe strawberries, juicy raspberries, delicate violets, redcurrants, tangy cranberries, luscious blueberries, and enticing cherry liqueur intertwine harmoniously. Herbal notes of eucalyptus and mint add a refreshing touch, while hints of vanilla, cloves, cedarwood, earthy humus, and wet leaves contribute to its complexity. The wine exhibits a youthful character, exuding vitality and allure.

Palate: Insieme delights with a dry sweetness and medium acidity that provide a balanced structure. The tannins are gentle, allowing the fruity flavors to shine through. With a medium body, the wine offers a satisfying weight on the palate. The flavor intensity is also fairly persistent, showcasing the same delightful notes experienced on the nose. A distinctive touch of bitterness reminiscent of blood orange adds depth and charm to the overall profile. The wine culminates with a fairly long finish, leaving a persistent and pleasant sensation.
