Ascona riserva
Merlot Ticino DOC Riserva
2019

It is the only true Ascona wine: the fruit of the first rows of vines planted on our estate, forty years ago. Maturation for two years in barriques enhances the link with the microclimate of Lake Maggiore and the mineral soil, the result of the millennial work of the Maggia river.

How it looks
Intense, luminous garnet
Aroma
Fine, elegant and very complex. Fruity notes of morello cherry and cassis. Spicy hints of cinnamon and black pepper, bitter cocoa and balsamic background.
Taste
Full-bodied and structured. The tannin is velvety and perfectly embraces the softness of the sip. Very persistent and harmonious finish in the nose.
Perfect match with
Terreni alla Maggia rice baked with aubergines and Ticino cheese gratin, lasagne with aubergines and lamb ragout, Chateaubriand with Béarnaise sauce
