Merlot

Red – Excellence

Merlot Bonotto

This classic variety, especially famous in the area of Bordeaux, for the “Bordeaux cut”, in Italy is almost vinified in purity. Considered one of the most important wines in the world, this particular interpretation of Merlot Trevigiano is distinguished by the particular structure resulting from the drying and the valuable complexity conferred by the aging in wood.
