“Vigna L’Apparita” Merlot Toscana IGT 2021

The exceptional single-varietal Merlot L'Apparita is outstanding with its elegance, strength of character, fine tannin and acidity structure and an endlessly long finish. An oenological rarity in Tuscany and an object of desire every year, and not only for this reason. The aroma is a combination of fruity and spicy impressions, with an excellent fleshy flavour, whose juicy, still quite incisive tannin blends well with the warm body. SUPERIORE.DE

"One of Italy's most collected Merlots, the 2021 L'Apparita opens to a rich and inky-dark appearance. Very true to the grape, this vintage hits impeccable ripeness with soft cherry intensity and spice that is padded by extra textural fiber. Like always, this wine is especially successful in terms of mouthfeel and finish. The bouquet has ripe fruit, softly toasted spice and a hint of olive tapenade. It is quite the mouthful." Wine Advocate

"This shows so much depth and intensity, with a beautiful nose of dark fruit, walnuts, licorice, iodine and seashells. Some wood showing now. Pure and structured. It shows both richness and freshness, with a full body and a compact, seamless tannin structure. Need time to soften. Try after 2028." James Suckling

"The 2021 L'Apparita is sublime. A wine of compelling inner perfume and exotic richness, the 2021 is shaping up to be one of the great L'Apparitas. Inky dark fruit, espresso, licorice, lavender and crushed rocks abound in a towering, statuesque wine that will absolutely thrill those lucky enough to own it. It perfectly embodies all the greatest qualities of this historic vintage." Vinous
