VinificationMaceration takes place in thermo-conditioned steel vats, followed by a malolactic fermentation and a maturation of at least 3 months in cement tanks before being bottled in the total absence of oxygen. How to pair our Merlot Serve it at 12°-14° possibly in a large glass and always uncork it a few minutes before serving so that it can open up well and express itself at its best.Excellent for many occasions, it is the typical red wine that can be appreciated not only on cold winter days, but also in summer too.It is perfect with aperitifs, appetizers, savoury food, vegetarian dishes, white and red meats and fresh and medium-aged cheeses.Imagine crostini alla caprese, spaghetti cacio e pepe, a parmigiana di melanzane, sweet and sour chicken, veal with rucola or a soft cheese.
