2015 Planeta Merlot Sito Dell Ulmo

100% Merlot and this is from their Melfi Winery where the Planeta family started they now have five wineries in every major appellation in Sicily Allessio gave us a tour of the Mount Etna winery. A very light and savory Merlot with fine herbs, green pepper and fresh earth to the red plum fruit and light smoky notes, dried meat. A very elegant style of Merlot with red plum fruit, silky smooth tannins and a firm hand of acidity, this wine holds up very nicely on the second day. Finish 40+ Excellent
