MERLOT VENETO IGP SOLEGHET RED WINE

Some of the finest Merlot grapes grown in the Veneto region of Italy make this exceptional Merlot Veneto IGP a sumptuous deep red colour with tantalising violet reflections. It has an intense, yet pleasant, balanced cherry and black cherry aroma and on the palate it is harmonius, well structured and dry, with a persistent aftertaste.

Served at room temperature, it matches wonderfully with meals involving boiled or roasted red meats and mature cheeses.

• Q Should I decant this wine?
• A You don’t need to decant this wine, but, any wine can be decanted. The reason for decanting is to aerate the wine; a lot of young wines can be tight or closed on the nose or palate. By slowly pouring the wine into the decanter it takes in oxygen which helps to open up the aromas and flavours.
