Vinification and aging: Grapes carefully selected from the Mocenni vineyard. Fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks with a maceration period of approximately 20 days at a controlled temperature of 28/30°C. Following the alcoholic fermentation, the wine was aged in French oak tonneaux for 24 months, during which it underwent malolactic fermentation. It was then refined in the bottle for a minimum of 18 months.

Tasting Notes: Intense color with violet hues. This wine stands apart from typical Merlots, as the character of the Mocenni terroir dominates over the variety itself. On the nose, there are prominent notes of fresh mint, ink, and fresh black fruits, accompanied by herbal nuances such as fennel. This Merlot reveals a unique profile marked by its vibrant acidity and the distinctive flavor signature of Mocenni. It showcases an elegant balance that emphasizes freshness and complexity, making it a true expression of the vineyard's identity
