Ticino – Lamone – Sacha Pelossi 2021

Grape varieties: 100% Merlot

Features :
This Ticino wine asserts its personality with a brilliant purple color and a nose that is both intense and delicate. Ripe black fruits, juicy cherries, violet nuances, and discreet woody notes intertwine elegantly. On the palate, the attack is supple and velvety, supported by fine tannins and a beautiful freshness. The balance between power and finesse is perfectly mastered, with a lingering finish of aromas of cocoa and macerated fruits.

Food and Wine Pairings:
Perfect with grilled rib-eye steak, porcini mushroom risotto, or duck breast with figs. It also pairs well with mature cheeses or a typical Ticino stew like ossobuco.
