The Scarbolo 2012 Merlot Campo del Viotto sees fruit sourced from old vines and it ages in French barrique for two years. The wine does not hold back in terms of aromatic intensity, but the aromas are a bit out of balance all said and done. There is dark fruit and cherry, but you also get black olive and some sharp rosemary or dried herbal tones. In the mouth, the wine delivers evident sweetness and a rich, chewy consistency.
