Campo Alle Comete Stupore Rosso Bolgheri 2022, Tuscany, Italy
It is time for some Merlot on this #MerlotThursday. Let's bring Merlot back!
Pretty ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.
Medium bodied with medium plus acidity.
Dry on the palate with red fruits, earth, herbs, spices, tobacco leaf, light barnyard, dark coffee and peppercorn.
Short finish with round tannins and tangy raspberries.
This young Merlot blend is still harsh, but good with food right now. A little unbalanced, but drinkable nonetheless.
Would be interesting to try it again in 3 years.
A blend of 50% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Syrah. Aged in steel vats on the lees for 12 months.
14% alcohol by volume.
88 points.
$20.
