    The DOC Cortona, which has existed since 1999, is famous for its single-varietal Syrahs and Merlots, whose vines thrive on the pliocene clay soils. Since 2006, the Carletti family has also been involved in this hitherto relatively unknown appellation, and their Merlot Il Violas is now known beyond Italy's borders and has many fans.

    Dense, dark ruby colour with violet reflections. The bouquet is an open-hearted bouquet of black berries, sandalwood, rosemary and fine spices. The texture envelops the palate, warm, intense and rich after dark fruits, chocolate, plum and redcurrant. In Violas is an attractive, generous and deep red that almost calls out for a Bistecca Fiorentina and gives great pleasure. SUPERIORE.DE

    "Pure, saturated flavors of black cherry and blackberry are framed by toasty oak in this fluid red. Vibrant, with a light coating of tannins, this is elegant overall. Lingering finish." Wine Spectator

    "Charcoal, black olives, roasted red peppers and dark plums with some dark chocolate and cedar character. Fine-grained and silky tannins on the palate, with a medium to full body and a long, layered finish. Shows length, depth and polish. An outstanding merlot that shows typicity." James Suckling
