Kurtatsch Merlot Riserva Brenntal 2021

Alto Adige DOC still red, 14% ABV, produced by Cantina Kurtatsch. 100% Merlot. 0.75 L bottle, 2021 vintage. A Merlot Riserva born from the passion of a historic winery, one of the oldest winemaking cooperatives in the region. Merlot was introduced to South Tyrol 130 years ago. The Brenntal vineyard borders the northern foothills of the great limestone massif. Temperature-controlled fermentation in a rotovinifier. Aged in barriques for 15 months. Fragrant aromas of wild herbs recall the vegetation above the forest edge. Intense garnet red. Fresh minerality, it vibrates intensely on the palate.
