Aroma Notes-

Appearance: Intense red with purple highlights

Bouquet: Broad, generous nose, with impressions of dark cherry and wild berry backgrounded by notes of spice, the gift of its Merlot parent.
Palate: Rich in the mouth, exhibiting great elegance, thanks to a tangy acidity and smooth mouthfeel, traits from both its parents. The tannins are pronounced but enjoyable.

A new grape variety developed through research carried out by the University of Bologna Department of Agrarian Sciences, Merlese combines the finest characteristics of Sangiovese with those of Merlot. The 5-year-old vines are planted in medium-textured, limestone-clay soils and yield 8 tons per hectare. After a meticulous quality-selection of the berries, the must ferments in temperature-controlled vats of fibreglassed concrete and of cocciopesto, with programmed pumpovers for optimal extraction from the skins. Merlese matures exclusively in steel.

Umberto Cesari

Umberto Cesari Winery, founded in 1964, lies in the hills of Castel San Pietro Terme, in western Romagna. Our winemaking has always focused on our local native grapes, but over time we have added international varieties as well. Day by day, we have watched our vineyards grow, as has our awareness that our local growing area is our most important natural resource. That is the reason that we follow a philosophy that respects the earth but at the same time welcomes new challenges represented by sustainability and innovation. Because we know that the grape of tomorrow must be even better than that of today.
