In 1999, Andrea added Merlot to Trinoro for a blend of 70% Cabernet Franc, 20% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Sauvignon and 4% Petit Verdot. Mostly fermented in open vats with indigenous yeast, a portion was fermented in new French oak barrique. Really punchy and vibrant thanks to that dollop of Merlot, this is full of cassis, black cherry and damson jam, with a slightly meaty edge. Ripe and juicy yet with a pungent character and surprising delicacy, it combines silky and succulent black fruits with streaks of pomegranate and wood polish, while lacy acidity outlines the fruit and introduces a long, persistent finish. Poured from magnum. 12,000 bottles produced.
