Notte a San Martino
BENACO BRESCIANO IGT MERLOT
Assertive yet velvety, a wine to meditate upon.
Wine made exclusively with select Merlot grapes dried in wooden crates. Following a careful wine-making technique, it is then aged in French oak for more than 24 months. This wine enjoys great longevity and marked identity. Deep ruby red in colour, ethereal and enveloping perfume with notes of ripe fruit, coffee up to more intense hints of chocolate. Its captivating sumptuous structure makes this wine velvety and elegant, suited to the very best of occasions.
