  My last bottle. Not sure why but this was least impressive than the last one I opened. It seemed much more intense and less subtle. It would have been much better with food but it was still good to drink. Ripe and intense red fruit dominate the nose with good body and medium length finish.

  It is not so often one gets to drink a 100% Merlot. This one is deliciously waiting to mature even more, to become a true wow wine.
  
  Intense, deep ruby in color. Compact rim. A mix of red and dark berries to the nose. Velvety with a certain dryness in the attack. Dark berries to the palate; mulberries, together with some morello and blueberries. Rich on tannins. Long delicious finish ending in a kind of sweet, dried fruit.

  Excellent with steak kabobs. Full bodied with smooth tannins.

  This Merlot is very fruity and tastes like an very very young Merlot. I appreciated, but I think it needs more time.
  
  For the price of 40 €, id prefer to buy the way more elegant Merlot from Avignonesi (Desiderio)
