Merlot Collio DOC - Dario Raccaro 2024

In the glass it appears compact but not heavy, with a well-defined tannic structure and a freshness that gives lift to the sip. On the nose there are notes of ripe red fruits, a hint of cherry and plum, delicate herbal nuances and a light spiciness that makes the bouquet interesting without forcing it.

On the palate it is balanced, of good structure, with soft but present tannins and a sapidity that cleans the finish, leaving a pleasant and restrained persistence. It pairs well with land-based dishes: white roasts, red meats that are not too fatty, medium-aged cheeses and preparations with mushrooms. Serve at around 16-18 °C, decant briefly if consumed immediately to encourage the opening of the aromas. It is a wine that accompanies everyday conviviality well, maintaining character and drinkability, suitable for those seeking a Merlot with authentic substance but without excess.
