Tasting Notes

Tasting from 01.12.2017: Martin Kilchmann

Deep red, with an inviting, cool nose of sour cherries, milk chocolate and ivy. The full-bodied palate has a fresh attack, driven by a tannin structure that's still a little grippy and bitter. Juicy, crisp acidity leads to a good finish. An honest, unadorned Merlot that can age. Riflessi d'Epoca has become reliable value in recent years thanks to Brivio's winemaker Fredi De Martin.
