Fattoria Cerro Poggio Golo Merlot 1997 - 0,75l

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows an intense ruby-red color with reassuring depth for a wine of this age. The bouquet is layered and expressive, opening with ripe red and dark fruit before moving into notes of spice, dried herbs, and a subtle earthy nuance. On the palate, it is smooth and full-bodied, with a supple texture, balanced acidity, and a long, persistent finish. The wine’s maturity adds polish and complexity, while still preserving enough structure to remain interesting at table. It is drinking well now, with limited further aging potential as it is already fully evolved.

Production

The winemaking focuses on capturing concentration and varietal purity, with vinification designed to preserve the fruit’s natural richness and aromatic complexity.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with roasted or grilled meats, game, aged cheeses, and classic pasta dishes with rich sauces. Serve it at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting briefly if opening a bottle that has been stored for a long time, to help the aromas fully open up.
