Product Overview
Pizzolato’s 2020 Merlot is organic and free from synthetic sulfites and other additives, preserving and celebrating the pure flavors of premium organic fruit. This soft, mellow red has a deep ruby hue with seductive depths of purple. On the nose, it offers delicate aromas of red berries, honey, toasted coconut, and a dusting of fine cocoa, with a warm edge of roasted pepper. It has a medium-to-full body with chewy tannins and a velvety texture.
This smooth palate builds on the layered bouquet, adding hints of red apple, smoky vanilla, and a clay minerality. Versatile and food-friendly, this organic Merlot is an outstanding table wine, perfect for dinner parties. Building on 40 years of experience in organic agriculture, La Cantina Pizzolato is proud to produce pure, natural, and sustainable wines, rooted in a deep respect for the land.
