The Merlot DOC Friuli Grave Tenuta Fernanda Cappello is a wine that elegantly and characterfully reflects the unique territory of the Grave del Friuli. This wine is made from carefully selected Merlot grapes, grown on sandy and gravelly alluvial soils, typical of this renowned area. The aging, which takes place in wooden barrels to enhance structure and softness, gives the wine a harmonious balance between freshness and green notes of aromatic herbs.
In the glass, it presents an intense ruby red color; on the nose, aromas of ripe red fruits, such as cherry and plum, emerge, accompanied by delicate spicy tones and a light balsamic background. On the palate, it shows a soft and enveloping tannic texture, with a persistent finish that invites another tasting. Ideal paired with grilled red meats, aged cheeses, and traditional Friulian dishes, it is an authentic expression of Merlot in one of the most prized areas of Friuli Venezia Giulia.
