Description: FSM (Federico Secondo Matta) is a 100% Merlot wine from a steep southeast-facing plot of our estate. It is a refined wine representing Merlot's best expression in Vicchiomaggio's terroir.
It is incredibly dark, with blue-black shades. It has a very rich and changing nose. It is mainly fruity, with concentrated raspberry syrup and black cherry, then layers and layers of tertiary aromas like cedar, chocolate, herbs, graphite, and underwood. It has a full body and intense flavours. Tannins are ripe and delicate. It stays with you for a long time, with a refreshing and balsamic finish.

Details
