Il Giubileo

Merlot Ticino DOC

2021

Own production

Giubileo is a merlot with a contemporary style that we created in 2010 to celebrate the first 80 years of our winery. Rich and elegant, it has been thrilling us with its balance ever since, thanks to the combination of different terroirs and ageing in wood and terracotta.
