Dolce Vita

A NEW TORCIANO MERLOT
Strong red wine from Tuscany Region

Tenuta Torciano Winery, producer of premium Tuscan wines, announces the release of its new Torciano Cardinale Merlot vintage 2022. This wine comes from a careful selection of 100% Tuscan Merlot grapes and is the result of a careful viticultural and enological project, which tends to enhance the vineyards and local winemaking traditions.

Our Merlot is characterized by an intense ruby red color. The nose opens with rich hints of red fruits, enriched with pleasant spicy notes and balsamic aromas of myrtle and eucalyptus. The taste is warm and full-bodied, with silky tannins. The wine has a long and harmonious persistence in the aftertaste.

Merlot is an excellent food wine due to its soft tannins, medium high acidity, and enjoyable fruit flavors. It can be paired with a wide range of dishes, from charcuterie and cheese to pork and veal.

Merlot wine is almost always dry, but its strong fruit flavors can give an illusion of sweetness. This makes it possible to pair it with both white and dark meat. Perfect to accompany first courses with meat sauce and red meats, is ideal for happy hour and in combination with cold cuts, pizza and finger food.

Top Merlot wine from Italy

“We began the harvest 10 to 15 days earlier than in previous years due to the early-season heatwave,” says Pierluigi Giachi, owner and winemaker of Tenuta Torciano Winery.

“Despite the stress experienced by the vines and early ripening, the season was balanced by rains in August. We brought outstanding quality grape clusters to the cellar, which had excellent health. We’re seeing excellent chemical parameters of maturity with an almost perfect balance between sugar content and acidity."

Made only from the best hand-harvested Merlot grapes from our estates, with ultra-fine tannins and a smooth and full finish, this is a strong red wine that stands out for its complexity and elegance. Full bodied and luscious on the palate, superb balance to the wine and a finish that goes on for a full minute.
