Giuseppe Quintarelli Rosso Ca del Merlo IGT 2007

Cà del Merlo is the “cheeky cousin” of the Quintarelli family – a little less rule-bound, a little more wild at heart. It’s not technically single-vineyard in the classic sense, but rather a creative playground for blending beyond strict Valpolicella tradition.
Expect a punch of inky dark fruit – think black cherry, plum and a touch of blueberry – that somehow still feels fresh despite its depth. There's a delicious lushness here, but it never tips into excess thanks to the whisper of minerality from those limestone and basalt-rich hills. It’s got structure, soul, and just enough swagger to keep you sipping.
In short, this bottle doesn't just talk the talk – it swirls, stains, and seduces.
