Le Macchiole Messorio 2019
Messorio, first produced in 1994, Messorio was a personal challenge with one of the most planted varieties in Bolgheri, on the Tuscan coast, and in the world: Merlot. From the start, the idea was to transform the best bunches into an impactful wine with a lot of personality, staying as far away as possible from the more soft, predictable style that is often associated with Merlot and instead making a thoroughbred eager to win the race. The name “messorio” refers to the wheat harvest, one of the most fundamental parts of the agricultural cycle.

Colour

Ruby red, compact and bright.

Bouquet

Intense on the nose, with clear recognitions of sour cherries, plums and black cherries, followed closely by licorice, mentholated tobacco, cinchona, dark spices and vegetable and aromatic touches.

Flavour

Consistent with the taste, balanced and soft, with smooth tannins and a pleasant fresh-sapid drive. Persistent.

Pairing

Meat
Game
Cheese
Matured cheese
Pork
