"Finally, my friends, we raise our glasses for ourselves, for us as a brotherhood, because we have a heart full of goodness". France Prešeren
Fresh encounter of Refosco and Merlot, this wine is ruby red in color, with moderately persistent nose that opens easily on the red fruit along with a slight vein of herbs. Clean and fresh palate, characterized by a light pétillance with an immediate finale and easy to approach.
