Gran Passione Rosso Merlot Blend 2022
Italy
60% Merlot, 40% Corvina
14%
Gran Passione is a rich, deeply-colored blend of Merlot (60%) and Corvina grown in select vineyards in Italy’s Veneto region, the area around Venice. The grapes are harvested in the beginning of October at a maturation that ensures profound ripeness, an advanced phenolic profile, and good potential alcohol. The late maturation contributes characteristic notes of ripe fruits like plums and raisins. Subsequent oak aging develops depth and gives rise to pleasing notes of spice and vanilla.
Food pairing
Fantastic accompaniment to roasted or grilled meats; ideal with game, but excellent with mature hard cheeses.
