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: Reduced
This is said of aromas that are reminiscent of a stale wine and that can be released when a long-closed bottle is opened. They generally fade with airing.
