Descrizione

This Merlot varietal candidly expresses the grape's character in an easy-drinking red wine. In the glass it shows a medium ruby colour, followed by aromas of ripe red fruits such as cherry and plum, accompanied by light herbaceous notes and delicate spice. The body is medium, with soft tannins and balanced freshness that supports the sip without weighing it down. The flavour profile favors fruit, with echoes of red fruit juice and a hint of earthy note that gives depth.

It is suited to everyday drinking and informal occasions, ideal with pasta dishes with tomato-based sauces, grilled white meats and not overly aged cured meats. Serve at around 16-18 °C and open a few minutes before to let the wine relax. Store in a cool, light-protected place. A simple, versatile choice for those seeking an Italian Merlot with a clear varietal expression.

Winery history

Terre Forti was created as a brand associated with Gruppo Caviro: it was initially used as a supporting label during the expansion of supplies, when it became necessary to remove the grape variety name from the packaging, and later became a standalone line within the cooperative group's range. Over time the sourcing network was extended to various areas of Italy, integrating wines from different territories into a single collection.

Production philosophy

To showcase Italy's territorial "roots" by offering wines that express the different regions while remaining accessible in the commercial segment. The range is integrated into Caviro's cooperative and industrial structure, with a focus on production standards and large-scale production and distribution practices.

Terroir and vineyards

Wines produced from grapes sourced from various Italian regions: documented examples include Sicily, Abruzzo, Emilia-Romagna / Romagna and the Venezie areas.
