Sant'Agnese. Merlot 'Rubido'

IGT Toscana
Grape  Merlot

Ripe, fleshy strawberry, damson and berry flavours, laced with spice, bitter chocolate, ripe jammy fruit; beautifully intense and rich – California meets Pomerol.  An absolute classic merlot powerhouse, unlike any merlot I have bought (there haven't been many), this one is unrestrained and joyous.  The Hagrid of wines. 14.5%

Rubido means very intense, fitting for this soft, rich Merlot. Fermentation is in cement vats at 25° with regular pumping over. The wine is then racked and held in concrete tanks for malolactic fermentation, after which it is aged in barrique for eight months before a final assemblage and bottling.
