WINE DESCRIPTION

Col d'Orcia Toscana Nearco is a masterful blend that embodies the essence of Montalcino’s renowned terroir and Mediterranean climate. Produced by Col d'Orcia, this Tuscan gem features Merlot, Cabernet, and Syrah grown in meticulously maintained "cru" vineyards nestled among the iconic Brunello vines. These international varieties thrive in the region's ideal conditions, showcasing elegance and harmony. Nearco is crafted with expert precision, with each varietal vinified separately and then artfully blended. The wine is aged for 18 months in fine oak barrels, resulting in a bold and structured creation where Merlot’s softness, Cabernet’s strength, and Syrah’s spiced fruit converge to perfection. A modern Tuscan classic with unmistakable character and sophistication.
