The Farnese name has been a byword for quality for over a decade. Winemaker Filippo Baccalaro selects the ripest grapes from Abruzzo’s hillside vineyards to produce this special cuvee.
After winning more medals than any other cellar at Italy's top wine show and a 'Best Italian Red' trophy in London, the three winemakers behind Farnese's rise to fame - Valentino, Filippo and Camillo - are delighted to have been named ‘Italian Winery of the Year’ for the third year running!
Their beautifully soft, plum-and-chocolate Merlot is wonderfully succulent thanks to gentle ageing in French barrels. Rich damson and forest fruit aromas and ripe blackberry flavours. Delicious with pasta, pizza and roasts.
