Sito dell'Ulmo Sicilia Menfi Merlot DOC 2015

Sicilian Merlot of intense ruby color and bright red reflections. On the nose blackcurrant, ripe plums and candied violets. Full-bodied, velvety and densely woven on the palate. Well balanced tannins and persistent finish. - Gerardo [TS08/16]

"Strong garnet red with black reflections. Pronounced nuances of ripe wild berries, blueberry jam, some malt coffee and dark chocolate, toasted aromas on the nose. Spans a wide dress on the palate, with grippy tannin, shows fresh game, well integrated wood use, reverberates with fine spice long." - Falstaff
