Messiio, a name originating from the tradition that means “he who will come”, is the wine of excellence of the cellar, produced only in the best vintages. Made with Merlot grapes only, coming from the most long-lived and selected vineyards of the estate, it represents the maximum expression of this blend, universally recognized as a vine with great roundness and softness. The careful selection of the grapes, the obsessive care in the winemaking process, the partial fermentation and aging in wood give Messiio depth, persistence and a strong personality.<\/p>\n

Round, full-bodied and intense.<\/p>\n Pairings<\/strong>: First courses with meat sauce, cured meats and aged cheeses, grilled red meats, stews in general and game.<\/p>\n Format<\/strong>: 750 ml<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" “Messiio” Merlot (2012)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1777,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[48],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-1960","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-other-tuscan-red-wines","first","instock","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"yoast_head":"\n
