Lunardi Merlot, Italy (6 bottle case)

Tasting Notes: A pleasantly balanced, juicy and well-structured wine. Cherry notes dominate the nose, with delicate hints of violet. Hints of eucalyptus follow on the finish.

Producer: Riondo’s impressive operation is based in the town of Monteforte d’Alpone, in Soave. A well established of the Veneto region and a superb cooperative offering the very best value Italy can muster without compromising on quality.

Winemaking: After a careful selection of grapes, the skins and juice are continuously mixed in order to extract colour and tannins. The resulting wine is aged in steel casks to preserve its fruity features.
