€216.00
VAT included
Born in 1994, Messorio is a personal challenge with one of the most popular varieties in the Bolgheri area, on the Tuscan coast and in the world: Merlot. The idea, immediately, is to transform the best bunches into a wine of great impact and personality, moving away as much as possible from the scheme that would like it docile and predictable but making it, on the contrary, a purebred horse that does not give up pawing . The name refers to the period of harvesting and harvesting, a fundamental step in any agricultural activity.
