Wine Description:

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.


Wine Cellar:

Tenuta Torciano Winery is situated in the heart of Tuscany, 35 minutes from Florence and 20 minutes from Siena, surrounded by beautiful rolling hills and a succession of unique greenery that features towering cypress trees, long stretches of beautiful vineyards, olive groves, forests of oaks and lovely villages.

When you visit Tenuta Torciano Winery, you will totally immerse yourself in Italian culture, together with a Tuscan family consisting of 13 generations of wine producers. Here you will experience warm hospitality and additional Tuscan traditions handed down from father to son.


Area of Production:

Located in central Italy along the Tyrrhenian coast, Tuscany is home to some of the world's most notable wine regions. Toscana IGT is the most famous – and the most commonly used – of Italy's Indicazione Geografica Tipica (IGT) titles. The geographical region it indicates is, in short, Tuscany.

Toscana IGT wines can be made in any village in any of Tuscany's 10 provinces.


Grapes:

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.
