Marca Trevigiana IGT Merlot – Sante Rosso 2021 – Cecchetto Giorgio

This 100% Merlot is made from slightly overripe grapes, fermented in oak vats for 10 days, and aged in second-use barriques for at least 8 months.

The wine displays an intense ruby red color. On the nose, it reveals aromas of strawberry, cherry, and ripe plum, with a delicate hint of nutmeg.

On the palate, the oak aging is evident but well-balanced, allowing the vibrant fruity notes to shine. It has a medium body, balanced acidity, and tannins that are present but not overpowering.

The wine is well-structured, with a good balance and a persistent finish featuring smoky nuances. A refined and enjoyable Merlot with potential for further aging.
