DESCRIPTION
There are grapes that promise to be beautiful, like a promise of happiness. It happens when nature, the terroir, the sun, come together in a special and perhaps unrepeatable vintage. And then one can only accept the challenge of perfection. The desire was born not to lose the exceptionality of that magical coincidence and to seek the best. There is the tension to keep that promise, creating the most balanced, elegant, expressive and long-lived wine. Merlot comes out only in the best years for Merlot grapes. The first special vintage for us was that of 1990. Then we chose to wait for another harvest at the height. A harvest that allowed us to vinify the Merlot grapes in purity: the prodigy was repeated with the 2001,2003 and 2009 vintage.

Merlot is the result of a careful selection of the grapes and a skilful winemaking conducted in full respect of the Ca 'del Bosco Method. The grapes from 3 "chosen" vineyards, just hand-picked in small boxes, are classified and cooled. Each bunch is selected by expert eyes and hands, to then benefit from the exclusive "grape spa", a particular system of washing and hydromassage of the bunches, through three soaking tanks and a drying system. Afterwards, each bunch is transported over the maceration vat. With de-stemming, the grapes fall into the vat, from above, by gravity. This eliminates the traditional pumping systems, which are the cause of the breakage of the skins and unwanted herbaceous notes. Alcoholic fermentation and maceration were carried out for 21 days, carefully managing temperature and punching down. The pumping over was carried out daily, using a pair of lifting tanks into which the wine, tapped from the bottom of the vat, is transferred by gravity. The wine, brought up from the flying tanks, is poured into the vat, at a high flow rate, to submerge the "hat". Nothing could be more natural and effective to delicately extract color and tannins. After racking, the wine, still warm, is decanted into small oak barrels, 65% new, obtained from selected woods, aged for at least 3 years. The refinement lasted a total of 18 months, at the end of which the wine was bottled by gravity, in a natural way. Thanks to innovative filling systems, the wine does not undergo oxidative shocks, flapping and further additions of sulphites. Its integrity and healthiness are guaranteed. Finally, each packaged bottle is uniquely marked, to guarantee its traceability
Bottle aging 6 years and 5 months.

There are moments that have no words. Only the sensations can define them, emotions that know how to reach the heart and that become ecstasy, joy and beauty of a moment to be enclosed in the most intimate of memories. The art of wine as a moment of life in itself, a masterpiece born of that talent that only some men can achieve, in which dedication and ability come together in the magical and arcane union with nature. Infinity in a drop, the result of a slow, devoted and meticulous passion. Men, like lands, have a vocation. It was thus that a boy of about fifteen had the dazzling intuition of what a life lived in the light of its realization could be. Read more
