Note di degustazione
A pure expression of Merlot, the Castello di Bossi 2016 Girolamo strikes balanced ripeness with an emphasis on both fruitiness and freshness. The fruit side is quite enhanced in this classic vintage with dark cherry, plum and blackberry preserves. Red and purple berries cede to spice, tar, smoke and a touch of bittersweet chocolate. Ultimately, the wine appears tight, tonic and fresh, imparting generous texture and weight with no residual heaviness. This 2016 vintage should continue aging nicely in the bottle.

The 2016 Girolamo, 100% Merlot, is one of the most sensual, elegant wines I have ever tasted from Castello di Bossi. Freshly cut flowers, mint, spice, leather and tobacco all grace an exquisitely elegant, perfumed wine that hits all the right notes. Merlot has rarely, if ever, been this refined in Tuscany. In a word: superb.
A plush red with melted tannins that give the wine richness and brightness with chocolate, berry and hazelnut character. Full body. Rich and gorgeous. Pure merlot. Will be even better after a year or two. But gorgeous.
