Ricasoli 1141 Casalferro 2019
Casalferro is the result of developments initiated in the 1990s, when Francesco Ricasoli took over the firm and inspired him to begin his research into modern methods.
This wine justifies those who believe that the best expression of a terroir is when the typicality of a grape variety takes on completely new properties that are impossible to replicate in other places with the same characteristics. Today, Casalferro is a single varietal Merlot from a single plot of land which has reached the very pinnacle of grace and intensity.

Colour

Bright, ruby red.

Bouquet

Intense balsamic and spicy hints to the nose. Cocoa, pepper and liquorice and cinnamon blend with the fragrance of ripe red fruit.

Flavour

On the palate it is powerful and pleasant, the red fruit mingles again with spices and the sweet, elegant tannins of the wood used for ageing.

Pairing

It goes well with game, roast beef, braised and stewed meat and cheese.
