GialdiArzo 2021

About this wine

This Merlot from Ticino's Gialdi Vini is a beautiful expression of what Switzerland's sunny southern region does best. At 13% alcohol, it strikes that perfect balance between freshness and character that makes it incredibly versatile at the table.

On the nose, you'll find ripe red cherries and plums with subtle hints of Mediterranean herbs. The palate is smooth and approachable, with soft tannins and a touch of spice that lingers just long enough. It's the kind of wine that doesn't try too hard but delivers exactly what you want from a quality Ticino red.

This bottle shines alongside risotto alla milanese, osso buco, or a classic polenta with braised meat. If you're going for something simpler, it pairs beautifully with aged cheeses or charcuterie. Serve it at around 16-18°C to let all those lovely flavors come through.
