PERLATO DEL BOSCO / I.G.T. Toscana Merlot

Perlato del Bosco is the result of a particularly encouraging vintage that delivered a regular maturation of our grapes in a timely manner. The winemaking process took place in a tino troncoconico di rovere (conical oak vats) for 6 months and then 10 months in barriques.
The vintage defines the typical characteristics of Sangiovese from the coast: fresh and classical notes of Macchia Mediterranea that make this wine special for its territoriality. The good acidicty makes this wine easy to drink young but also suitable for aging

David subscribes to the "stuff your tent into the bag" strategy over nicely folding it. His thought process was on so many levels that he gave himself a phobia of heights. Everyone pretends to like wheat until you mention barley. You're unsure whether or not to trust him, but very thankful that you wore a turtle neck. My uncle's favorite pastime was building cars out of noodles. This made him feel like an old-style rootbeer float smells. It isn't true that my mattress is made of cotton candy.
