Asconi Sol Negru Merlot
TASTING NOTES
The wines that are obtained from Merlot are velvety, intense, with a beautiful dark ruby color. The bouquet offers fruits like blueberries, blackcurrant, plums, cherries, tomato leaves, rhubarb and subtle earthy notes. At the palette it is broad, deep, juicy and dripping blackberries and cherry notes. In the mouth the tannins are full-bodied, velvety, combined with a pleasant crunchiness you won’t forget so easily
