Switzerland, Ticino
The intense attack the nose develops a palette of fruity aromas (cherry, prune), coupled with discreet notes of spices and aging (tobacco, cedar wood, roasted aromas) – announces an exciting tasting. And indeed, this Ticino Merlot gradually reveals many facets. At first, it is the typical aromas of the grape variety that dominate. Then we let ourselves be seduced by the fat and the rich and very ripe fruitiness. Finally, the palate and the finish of a good length reveal succulent tannins associated with a fresh and fruity acid structure.
