Merlot Pravis 2019

This wine is deep red, strong and vivid with a young roundness and a bouquet that is heavily-laden with clean, crisp aromas and a well-judged level of herbs. It is easy to enjoy the taste of this wine due to combination of its comprehensive mellowness and its rich fruitiness - a fresh sensation of fruit that is still ripening and has been finely toasted. It has a finale that is light and velvety, and that is reminiscent of cherries. This wine is a classic of its kind. Contains sulphites. Produced by Azienda Agricola Pravis - Loc. Le Biolche, 1 - 38076, Lasino (TN) - Italy.

The producer

The grapevines cultivated by Pravis have put down their roots in the prehistory of Trentino, on slopes that are now vineyards, but were once the ancient pathways of prehistoric man, and on fields that allowed the early inhabitants of the Valley of Laghi to reap the riches of the land. Although grapevines are now cultivated according to strict wine-making criteria, Pravis still attempt to do things as simply as possible and obtain wines that really do have their origins in the land. The chosen vineyards, which are owned by the company, are at an altitude of 200 to 700 meters, right on the natural terraces where the modern wine-making traditions of Trentino originate. Nothing here is artificial. The grapes mature with the help of a unique mountain climate. A wind, known locally as "Ora del Garda", and the changing shape of the fields, allow splendid late harvests. It is as if Pravis takes the goodness of the Trentino countryside and puts it in a bottle.
