2015 Antinori Guado al Tasso Cont'Ugo Merlot Bolgheri

The 2015 Bolgheri Rosso Cont'Ugo is a soft and luscious Merlot from the Tuscan Coast. The wine is generous and bright, showing the full range of cherry and dark fruit exuberance you can expect of this grape in a sunny and warm vintage like 2015. The wine offers lovely softness and fruity sweetness that wraps thickly over the palate. You'd do well to pair this bright Tuscan red with grilled meats or oven-roasted lasagna. The mid-weight finish is bright and moderate length. This wine offers broad-based appeal. Review Date: October 2017
