Merlot was planted in the Orgno vineyard in 1978 as we wanted to see if our land, traditionally used to produce white wines, was also able to produce red wines of great quality. We were happy with the results: Merlot worked well in our area but we decided to wait 10 years before releasing it on the market so that it would reach the levels of quality that we demand.

The grapes are fermented in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. The wine is left to fine in French oak barrels for 36 months.
TASTING NOTES:
With an intense ruby red color, this wine is velvety with notes of ripe red fruits and hints of leather, truffles and liquorice. This wine is full- bodied and rich with great balance.
Orgno is perfect with grilled or braised meats, game and pasta dishes with
rich sauces. It is also excellent with mature cheeses. It can be enjoyed with food or
at the end of a meal accompanied by a cigar.
