L`Apparita made its debut in 1985 as a single-vineyard wine, swiftly earning acclaim for its outstanding quality. This 100% Merlot typically presents a lush and concentrated profile of dark fruits like blackberry and plum, complemented by hints of spices, cocoa, and subtle floral or herbal undertones. Its limited production ensures meticulous attention to detail and stringent quality control at every stage of the winemaking process.

A more exotic side of this site emerges from the 2008 L’Apparita. According to Marco Pallanti, the weather was quite warm in 2008. Rain towards the end of the season was more problematic for the later-ripening varieties, but that was not an issue for the Merlot. Black cherry, plum, smoke and licorice overtones add to an impression of darkness. Silky, beautifully ripe tannins and unctuous fruit with the natural richness that is achieved in late harvests add to the wine’s considerable appeal. This is one of my favorite wines of the afternoon. Antonio Galloni1st November 2017
