La Delizia Merlot 2021
Vol- 75cl
Ruby red with intense plum and red cherry notes,slightly herbaceous. Full bodied, warm with well-balanced tannins and lots of red and black plum fruit.
The production area includes a wide surface on the plain of the Friuli Region. In this land, well-known for its profound winemaking expertise, the nature of the soil and the particularly mild climate have contributed to create the best conditions for the vine growth. The grapes are pressed and fermented with the skins for 5-6 days under a controlled temperature. A second pressing follows, and then the wine is transferred into steel tanks to complete the alcoholic and the malolactic fermentation. After the stabilization procedure, the wine is bottled using modern technologies.
