Merlot Quercegobbe IGT 2020 Magnum PETRA

Quercegobbe
Merlot 100%
A real cru from which the merlot grapes used to produce the wine come.

Quercegobbe is in an ideal position, on the edge of the Mediterranean maquis but close to the winery, on a well-ventilated hill overlooking the sea.

Very concentrated ruby colour. Wide and intriguing nose, at first in the fruity notes of blueberries, raspberries, sour cherries and plums, then in the Mediterranean
component of myrtle, rosemary and liquorice.
The body is dense, rich overall, soft, with smooth tannins. As vigorous as it is balanced, it is an impactful red that does not betray expectations.
Production methodPrecious threads from the past weave a modern weave.
The production method is rigorously aimed at defending the territorial connotation.

It ferments in truncated conical oak vats and matures for 15 months, partly in new 600-litre demi-muids and partly in second-passage barriques. Finally, it is aged in the
bottle for a further 10 months.
