Description

One of the Maculan crus, the Veneto Merlot Crosara is born in vineyards located between the towns of Ferrata and Santo Stefano, in the heart of Veneto.

It is produced with 100% Merlot grapes, harvested and selected entirely by hand, slightly overripe. Fermentation takes place in small steel vats at controlled temperature, with maceration in contact with the skins for 8 days. Subsequently the wine ages for 12 months in new French oak barrels and for a further 6 months in bottle before being released on the market.

Maculan Merlot Crosara has a concentrated, deep purple red color. The nose opens with intense aromas of small black fruits and ripe red fruit, enriched with pleasant spicy notes of coffee and chocolate. On the palate it is fruity and structured, with sweet and elegant tannins.

Perfect to accompany game dishes and grilled red meats, this red wine is ideal in combination with braised meats and very mature cheeses.
