Casa Nocera - IGT TOSCANA ROSSO

Merlot 100%
IGT Tuscany Organic Wine

Casa Nocera represents the highest expression of our winery. It is obtained from the single vineyard "La Nocera" of about 1.5 hectares, trained to Guyot.

Harvesting takes place in the first decade of September. The choice to use natural yeasts, the long macerations, the traditional pumping over and delestages, all at controlled temperature, enhance the excellent expression of the grapes and the territory contributing to obtain the superior quality of "Casa Nocera".

Our Merlot needs a long aging in order to best express its potentialities, consisting in great elegance, excellent freshness, sensations of refined aromas.

The wine ages in French barriques for about 18 months, where malolactic fermentation also takes place, using new oak for 50%.

From here the wine goes to bottle where it stays for other 18 months for a complete aging.
According to our historical data and to many experts' confirmations, this wine has an average life of about 18 years from its release, under normal storage conditions.

Azienda Agricola Pagani de Marchi is a small jewel at the foot of Casale M.mo, between Bibbona and Cecina.

Built on Etruscan soil, it is renowned for being the archaeological site that has seen the re-emergence of the tomb of an Etruscan prince and in his honor produces a Sangiovese wine called "Principe Guerriero".

Sangiovese, Merlot and Cabernet are the masters, together with Vermentino for the white wine, on this hill of only 6 hectares, once cultivated with arable crops and now cradle of precious and well cared vines.

Always devoted to the highest quality, Pagani de Marchi produces since 2016 an absolute novelty: Cabernet Sauvignon in purity vinified entirely in terracotta amphora.
