Merlot varietal has been heard as early as the 1700s but it was only a century later (1870) that it reached Italy and specially Veneto. Much consumed by farmer families and nobles, it is considered one of the representative reds of the Venetian wine culture.

Today, the Siena section of the Association of Italian Sommelier is holding a vertical tasting of  @Az. Agr. Cecchetto Giorgio winery Sante Rosso.

In today vertical tasting we started from 2006 a journey in which the wine has evolved through the experimentation of different oenological styles, systems of pruning, barrels, etc.
