Merlot Rubicone IGP - Merlot - Enio Ottaviani 2019

The Merlot Rubicone IGP from Enio Ottaviani Winery is an excellent example of how the Merlot variety can brilliantly express itself in the Romagna region. Characterized by a rich and complex aromatic profile, this red wine is the result of a careful selection of grapes and a winemaking process that follows both traditional and innovative methods to enhance the natural qualities of the grape variety.

Visually, Enio Ottaviani's Merlot Rubicone IGP presents a deep and intensely luminous ruby red color. On the nose, notes of ripe red fruits such as cherries and plums harmoniously combine with undertones of sweet spices and a slight hint of vanilla, evidence of its passage in barrique.

On the palate, the wine offers a well-balanced structure: the acidity is lively yet well-integrated with the soft tannins, contributing to a pleasant and persistent sip. The aftertaste echoes the fruits and spices perceived on the nose, leaving a long and pleasing sensation of warmth and complexity.

Ideal for pairing with red meat dishes, game, and aged cheeses, Enio Ottaviani's Merlot Rubicone IGP also stands out for its ability to complement rich and flavorful dishes, turning every meal into an occasion of pure pleasure. Its versatility also makes it suitable to be enjoyed on its own, as a meditation wine.

Producing a Merlot in the heart of Romagna expresses not only the passion and dedication of Enio Ottaviani Winery but also the potential of the territory to give life to wines of great expression and identity.
