Di Lenardo Vineyards Venezia Giulia Merlot 2022

 

Bright red wine from Northern Italy, with the scent of herbs and berries. The taste is smooth and fresh. Pairs well with salads, charcuterie or lightly spiced chicken, but also with pork.

 

Massimo di Lenardo is an all-round winemaker. Are white wines such as Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay and Toh! are very popular, but the red ones are also becoming increasingly popular. Massimo distinguishes itself with a refined and elegant style, from known and unknown grape varieties.

His pure, red Merlot is smooth and accessible. The wine is stored in stainless steel tanks immediately after fermentation without maturing in oak barrels. This ensures maximum fruit expression from ripe Merlot grapes.

Merlot has spread from Bordeaux all over the world. He feels very much at home in the northern Italian climate with a fresh spring and a warm summer. Now, two hundred years after it was planted, the grape has become so 'Italianized' that its own character has emerged. Di Lenardo makes it an impeccable quality wine
