Corte Giara - Merlot Veneto IGT

Merlot Veneto I.G.T.

Bright and intense ruby red.

Vinous and brimming with red fruit with just discernible vegetal notes in the background.

Full and embracing on the palate, succulent, medium-bodied, with a good acidic backbone and texture of soft, evenly-woven tannins.
