Merlot "Marina Cvetic" is the authentic expression of all the passion and love for the land that started the production of Masciarelli wines in 1981. A winery that is a symbol of modern Abruzzo winemaking thanks to constant work under the banner of innovation, but always respecting the environment and tradition. A label that is part of a line born from the private and professional bond between Gianni Masciarelli and Marina Cvetic in 1991, which is characterized by the presence of pure international grape varieties. The reading of it is original and characterful: a structured and elegant wine, a voice out of the chorus for the most demanding and curious palates.

Masciarelli's "Marina Cvetic" Merlot comes from vineyards located in the L'Aquila town of Ofena, 500 meters above sea level, a short distance from the ancient village of San Silvestro and close to the Abruzzo National Park. The vineyard is located in a strategic position that reaches cold temperatures in the winter months and high in the summer months, mitigated by constant ventilation from Gran Sasso. The soils are medium-textured, rich in skeleton with rock outcrops. It is made from 100 per cent Merlot grapes, harvested and selected entirely by hand in late September and vinified in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. It is then aged in oak barrels for 12 months and aged in bottles for at least 24 months before release.

In the glass, Masciarelli Marina Cvetic Merlot shows a ruby red colour with garnet hues. The nose expresses all its complexity in intense notes of ripe red fruit, dried flowers, spices, bitter cocoa and vanilla. Of good freshness on the palate, it confirms all its depth and pleasantness of fruit closing with a very persistent finish. A Merlot that tells a story of love and passion for Abruzzo and points straight to the heart of the drinker.
