Why shop with us?
Specogna Merlot 2024 is a fresh, fruit-driven red from Friuli-Venezia Giulia in northeastern Italy. Made from Merlot, a variety that has become well established in the region, it offers an approachable expression of Italian Merlot with the balance and character associated with Friuli.
Tasting Notes
The wine shows a youthful ruby-red colour. On the nose, expect inviting aromas of ripe red and dark berries, complemented by subtle floral and gently spicy nuances. The palate is smooth and medium-bodied, with generous fruit, supple tannins and refreshing acidity leading to a clean, balanced finish.
As a 2024 vintage, this Merlot is best enjoyed for its youthful freshness and vibrant fruit. It can be served now, while careful cellaring over the next few years should allow the flavours and texture to develop further.
Production
Produced in Friuli-Venezia Giulia from Merlot grapes, this wine reflects the region’s reputation for fresh, balanced wines with expressive varietal character. Further details regarding the vineyard sites, harvesting methods and vinification process are not available.
Food & Serving
Enjoy Specogna Merlot with tomato-based pasta dishes, pizza, grilled vegetables, roast chicken, burgers and mild to medium-aged cheeses. Serve lightly chilled at approximately 14–16°C to highlight its freshness and fruit. Decanting is not necessary, although opening the bottle shortly before serving can help the aromas emerge.
