The "Desiderio Merlot Toscana IGT" produced by Avignonesi winery is a red wine of great expressiveness and charm, a true masterpiece from the Tuscany region. This label represents a sophisticated expression of the Merlot varietal, meticulously cultivated in the clayey and mineral-rich soils typical of the Tuscan hills.

The Avignonesi winery, renowned for its dedication to quality and sustainability, uses organic viticulture methods to preserve the environment and enhance the natural qualities of the grapes. The winemaking process follows the principles of minimal intervention, with the use of spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts to maintain the authentic and terroir-specific profile of the Merlot.

The "Desiderio" stands out for its deep, almost impenetrable red color. On the nose, intense aromas of ripe fruits such as plums and blackberries open up, enriched by subtle spicy notes and a hint of tobacco and chocolate, deriving from careful aging in French oak barriques. On the palate, the wine is generous and velvety, with a well-balanced tannic structure that promises excellent aging potential. The finesse of the acidity is perfectly balanced, leading to a long and persistent finish.

This Merlot is ideal for pairing with rich and flavorful dishes, such as meat roasts, game, and aged cheeses. It is advisable to decant it for a few hours before serving to enhance its complexity and aromatic breadth.

The exclusivity of this product makes it perfect not only for a refined dinner but also as a precious gift for enthusiasts of Tuscan wines and collectors. A genuine expression of the Tuscan terroir that will enchant the senses of every connoisseur of fine wine.
