Desiderio Toscana Merlot

Great merlot. Ready now warm spice on nose cherry. Decent tan

Beautiful deep ruby coloration. On the nose, cherry, plum, anise, cocoa, coffee, minerals, and warm spice. On the palate, cherry, tart berry, strawberry, vanilla, baking spices, minerals, turning to jammy fruit and a very long finish of the same flavors. Full body, with a rather rich mouthfeel. 2015 vintage with notable tannins still present. Revisited later with food and started getting notes of coffee and chocolate on the palate. Wonderfully full bodied and rich wine.

Nice mocha cherry on nose some tar notes too. Good flavors meaty earthy decent finish. Very nice merlot

Valentine’s Day with Ashley. Incredibly smooth. Dry with bitter cacao, winter berry, and licorice notes. Really nice for a special occasion.

Medium to full body, with a rather rich mouthfeel. Nice acidity that gives this wine a freshness and makes the fruit pop, together with a nice presence of tannins. $45 from B-21.
