Tasting profile (AI-generated)
Structure: medium-bodied, medium tannin, medium acidity, dry
A characterful Umbrian blend that pairs the dark cherry and plum richness of Merlot with the fragrant, floral lift of Aleatico — a grape rarely seen in red blends but adding a distinctive dried-rose and spice note. The palate is soft and approachable, with rounded tannins and enough fruit weight to feel satisfying without heaviness. It's an everyday-drinking style with regional personality, well-suited to the Umbrian table.
