The Famiglia Cotarella 2019 Merlot Sodale Cotarella sees the French grape panted in volcanic soils in the region of Lazio near the border with Umbria. The wine shows a dark core of black fruit with soft padding and concentration. It represents many of the elements that we find in the top-shelf Merlot, Montiano, but you get excellent value here.
