GARDA D.O.C. MERLOT
Ruby-red and limpid in colour, without the
orange shade you may expect from an aged wine.
In fact, it is still young, but has a rich and complex flavour.
On the palate the fructivity comes forth, laced with woodden tannins.
It is a wine with strong personality that will become full-bodied with the aging.
