“Carato Merlot 2016
90 Wine Advocate

From 40-year-old vines in the best expositions, the 2016 Ticino Merlot Carato offers a pure, elegant and spicy bouquet of ripe cherries and berries intermixed with fine toasty aromas. Round and smooth on the silky palate, this is a full-bodied, elegant and charming Ticino Rosso with fine tannins and vivacious acidity. Very delicate, fresh and digestible, it’s an authentic and well-made wine that was aged for nearly two years in new French barriques. Tasted in October 2019.”
