The Baglio Gibellina Sogno del Sud Merlot is a first-class red wine. It offers a wonderfully bright, purple-red color.

If we trace the aromas further, oriental spices, cocoa bean and black tea are added.

This red from Baglio Gibellina is the right choice for all wine lovers who like as little residual sugar as possible in their wine. However, it is never harsh or brittle, which is by no means a matter of course for a wine in the entry-level range. On the palate, this balanced red wine is characterized by an incredibly velvety texture. Thanks to its balanced fruit acidity, Sogno del Sud Merlot flatters the palate with a soft sensation without lacking in juicy liveliness. On the finish, this storable red wine from the wine-growing region of Sicily finally delights with good length. Once again, there are hints of forest fruit confit and blackberry.

Vinification of the Baglio Gibellina Sogno del Sud Merlot

This red wine clearly focuses on one grape variety, namely Merlot. Only first-class grapes were brought in for this exceptionally well-balanced single-varietal wine from Baglio Gibellina. After being harvested by hand, the grapes are immediately taken to the winery. Here they are sorted and carefully broken up. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. Fermentation is followed by maturation on the fine lees for several months before the wine is finally bottled.

This Italian red wine is best enjoyed at a temperature of 15 - 18°C. It goes perfectly with spaghetti with caper and tomato sauce, rum pot or chickpea curry
