Vinification of the Merlot Venezia DOC by Sessantacampi

The vinification of the Merlot Venezia DOC is carried out with great care. The grapes come from the Veneto region, where the climate is ideal for Merlot. Here, the vine benefits from sunny days and cool nights, which intensifies the aromas. The grapes are hand-picked at the optimal ripeness to guarantee the best quality. After harvesting, a gentle pressing takes place. Fermentation occurs in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve the fruity aromas. Subsequently, the wine ages for several months in American oak barrels. This maturation gives it the fine spice notes and the silky texture that make the Merlot Venezia DOC so special.
