Collio range

Merlot

It is ruby red in color with violet tinges. The nose displays vibrant and concentrated aromas of violet, wild berry, cherry and plum, followed by light elegant hints of vanilla, coffee and bitter chocolate. In the mouth, soft velvety tannins integrate with the elegant and well-structured body. Excellent lingering aftertaste.
