Mezzacorona Castel Firmian Merlot 2017
The Castel Firmian wines by Mezzacorona are a true expression of Trentino history and wine making tradition. Sourced from the foot of the Dolomites the grapes benefit from an alpine climate, which designs the balanced bouquet and the aromatic intensity of each wine. Grapes for the Mezzacorona Castel Firmian Merlot are cultivated north of Lake Garda, in the lower Trentino. Aged for up to 8 months in oak this award winning Merlot offers an intense bouquet with notes of wild berries and ripe fruit. Dry, complex and well structured on the palate.
