1967 Merlot

Serve it at 12°-14° possibly in a large glass and always uncork it a few minutes before serving so that it can open up well and express itself at its best.

Excellent for many occasions, it is the typical red wine that can be appreciated not only on cold winter days but also in summer too.

It is perfect with aperitifs, appetizers, savory food, vegetarian dishes, white and red meats, and fresh and medium-aged cheeses.

Characteristics of vine

Merlot is an international red grape variety whose origins lie in neighboring and influential France, particularly in the New Aquitaine area in the southwest of the country, in the Gironde department, a few kilometers from Bordeaux and the Atlantic Ocean.

In its area of origin, in Pomerol, but also here in Italy, in Tuscany, in the Bolgheri area, in the Val di Cornia and Cortona, or even in the Colli Orientali del Friuli, extraordinary wines have been created. They certainly do not deserve the generalization that has sometimes labeled it as excessively versatile and accommodating, trivializing the incredible finesse and elegance it has shown in some cases.
