Famiglia Cotarella Montiano Merlot is an Italian gem, offering a beautiful deep red hue and an ethereal bouquet of red fruits, cedar, and spices. This full-bodied wine from Lazio boasts a velvety texture with harmonious tannins, cultivated with great devotion on the sun-kissed hills. It contains rich, enveloping flavours of dark berries, plums, and subtle hints of vanilla, providing a lingering finish. Made by the renowned winemaking family, Cotarella, the Montiano Merlot showcases the exceptional quality it's known for and inevitably captures the essence of Italian winemaking tradition with every sip. It's an unforgettably opulent experience.

Tasting Notes

Montiano is deep ruby-red in color and exhibits a wide range of aromas, from red berries to spices along with hints of vanilla. Its palate is supple, full-bodied and elegant, remarkably enjoyable with a lingering finish. This wine shows its best qualities when served at a temperature of 18° C (64° Fahrenheit) in large ballon glasses, a great match with meat dishes.
