Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Merlot from Chianti, Italy. The vines are grown on hills with limestone, rock & clay

Taste Profile: Intense red with violet hues. On the nose it is fresh & lively, driven by a very intense fruity scent of cherry. Good structure and velvety tannins on the palate. Persistent finish with good acidity and flavor

Winemaking Process: The fruit is vinified in oak, and undergoes malolactic fermentation. It then ages for 18 months in oak, and a further 12 months in bottle before release
