Ornellaia, Tuscany, Italy
MERLOT, Drinking Now 2019‘2015 was one those years that every winemaker dreams of having at least once in his career. The balanced season with a warm and sunny summer, but with a cool, dry weather during the harvest produced wines that perfectly denotethe seasonal trend. Rarely do we find a perfect balance between the various components of the wine, from the deep ruby colour, to the crisp and fresh fruity hints with anideally meaty texture, supported by silky, smooth tannins, devoid of any harsh edge.’
