Quercegobbe
Variety
Merlot 100%
Tasting Notes
Highly concentrated ruby colour. The nose reveals an ample framework of great appeal in the first fruity notes of blueberry jam, dried raspberries, black cherries in syrup, prunes, then a noble plant component with myrtle, rosemary and then licorice, cinnamon and pepper. A dense body in the mouth, rich on the whole, with soft, rounded, silky tannins and well-tailored freshness. Persistent aftertaste, consistent with the aromas of the nose.
Food Pairing
Ideal with roasts, game and cheese, but also a great wine to sip slowly in company
