Tenuta Il Cascinone Soliti Merlot, Piemonte DOC

A structured, plummy Merlot from a 2.5 hectare plot on the Il Cascinone estate that punches well above its weight. Carlo Manera gave this a new lease of life from the 2016 vintage with ageing in oak for added complexity.

 Plum, blackberry and savoury spice characters on the nose. Full flavoured and rounded on the palate, with layers of dark fruit, black cherry and toasty spice backed by ripe tannins, a hint of mocha, and a fresh finish.

ABV 14.5%
