Livio Felluga Merlot 2019

Colour

Bright ruby red.

Bouquet

Intense and energetic character with a prelude of crunchiness that intrigues. The whirl of sensations begins with fruit and flowers: blueberry, geranium, black cherry, cyclamen, blackberry, carnation, raspberry, orchid, currant, plum, fresh pot-pourri, lotus; and evolves with spices and balsamic notes: white pepper, vanilla, liquorice root, coriander, mint. Coffee, bitter cocoa and woody hints enhance the depth of the aromatic profile.

Flavour

Great correspondence of sensations and aromas with a marked presence of red fruits, black cherry, white cherry, raspberry and fleshy flowers that make it juicy and stimulating on the palate, enveloping it with a pleasant astringency that gives liveliness. Toasted and spicy hints stretch out on the finish which persists with balsamic hints.

From this winery:

It is easy to see that the story of Livio Felluga and his wine is intertwined with the history of that particular land surrounding the far north-eastern part of the Adriatic, the point of contact between the Mediterranean and Central Europe. Returni...
