Descrizione
A grape variety originating in south-western France, particularly in the Bordeaux area, where, together with Cabernet, it forms the basic blend of some of the most prestigious wines of the Gironde. The first mentions of Merlot date back to the end of the 18th century and the first description by Rendre was in 1854. From France, it spread to Trentino at the end of the 19th century, where it found in certain areas the most suitable environmental conditions for its cultivation. This grape variety prefers well-ventilated low hillside areas with limestone-clay soils and a spurred cordon or Guyot training system. Merlot now ranks among the typical Trentino wines and has won new admirers for its characteristics of structure, personality and elegant evolution.
