Discover the grape variety: Epinou
Simple, light and fruity reds with a pale ruby colour, melted tannins and a light palate with moderate acidity, showing undemonstrative aromas of red fruits. A discreet rustic profile. Almost disappeared from commercial cultivation, preserved in INRAE varietal collections, it bears witness to pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity and is among the heritage varieties under study. Rare French black variety, once grown in the South-West.

The wine region of Ticino
Italian Switzerland, stronghold of Helvetic Merlot (~80% of plantings). Fleshy, refined reds with signature notes of ripe plum, black cherry, dark chocolate, leather and spices, round tannins and a velvety palate — often compared to the best Pomerol. Some cuvées vinified as Bianco di Merlot: original, ample whites (peach, citrus). Also native Bondola and Bordeaux blends.
The word of the wine: Ventilation
Aeration is the process of decanting the wine to oxygenate it and thus promote the expression of the aromatic range and the harmony of the flavours.
