Tasting Notes - Cesconi Merlot 2000 (Recommended)

Region: Lavis (Trentino)

Seems to fit the text book merlot definition well - drinks easy in a medium bodied style - with a leafy herbacious thread that reminds clearly of cabernet based wines. No coarse notes here, very smooth and a light, friendly tannin structure. Essentially fruit driven, has good weight, and is pretty classy. One of the better merlots I've drunk in some time.

(EuR 12.00)
