Cusumano Sicilia IGT Merlot 2008 |
|
Cusumano tackles the job of molding a typically international varietal like Merlot into an Italian equivalent with style and grace. Like all the single varietal offerings, the Merlot has a core of ripe fruit,whispers of spice, and creaminess on the mid palate and finish. All elements come together in perfect balance. |
| | | Tech Notes |
| | 100% Merlot. De-stemming and cold maceration on skins for 2 days. Fermentation with frequent re-circulation and removal of the must. Malolactic fermentation in stainless steel, and a period in contact with the fine les of at least 5 months. Successive fining in the bottle. | |
