TALAMONTI POGGIO DRAGONE SANGIOVESE MERLOT

Hand-harvested grapes from the Abruzzo region make up this fruit-forward red wine. Classic Italian varietal Sangiovese is combined with French Merlot and aged for three months in large vessels made from oak, to soften and round out the tannins. Sangiovese gives crunchy red fruits, brisk acidity and fine tannins for structure, while Merlot adds soft, fleshy red stone fruits, producing a plush, satisfying red.

Tasting Notes:

• APPEARANCE: Ruby-red colour with violet undertones.
• NOSE: A fragrant bouquet of red fruit, finely framed by gentle oak spices.
• PALATE: On the palate it’s showing juicy ripe small red-black fruit with a slight spiciness, accompanied by soft tannins and mild acids in the aftertaste.
