Merlot
Intense bouquet, with notes of raspberry, blackberry and blueberry in harmony with hints of toast and vanilla, moreover not overpowering resulting from the aging barrel. Of high natural alcohol content, it evolves over time with ethereal and engaging notes, even after 4-6 years.

How to read it
Taste-aroma intensityCalendula
The power and clarity of the aromas: how much the wine speaks to the nose.
SavourinessSalt
The salty, mineral note that makes the wine savoury and dynamic.
Acidity and freshnessApple
The freshness that cleanses the palate: more acidity, a livelier sip.
TanninsPersimmon
The astringency that dries the mouth, from the skins' tannins — like an unripe persimmon.
PersistenceStopwatch
How long the flavours linger after the sip: the length on the palate.
AlcoholWhiskey
The warmth and body of alcohol: the higher it is, the warmer and fuller the wine.
SoftnessHot chocolate
The enveloping roundness on the palate, without edges — soft as hot chocolate.
The producer
Raccaro
Una produzione artigianale, sostenibile e legata alle varietà tipiche del Collio sono il marchio che ci contraddistingue.
The winery covers 7 hectares of vineyards, all located in the area leading from Cormons to the hamlet of Brazzano. It is in this ideal habitat for the vine that our typical varieties such as Friulano, Malvasia and Ribolla Gialla, which together with Pinot Grigio represent 95% of the production, have been taken up with passion. The range is completed with Merlot, the only red wine produced by our winery.
