Wine history
chevron-down

The "Tenimento dell’Ör," a historic winery dating back to 1700, is located in Arzo, a picturesque village nestled in the rolling hills of Mendrisio. Situated at the foot of Monte San Giorgio, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its unique fossil and archaeological treasures, the vineyard has been completely renewed and planted with 28 different grape varieties.

Tasting note
chevron-down

A ruby red of moderate intensity. Complex with a subtle touch of ivy, typical of pure Merlot, refined and fruit-driven. On the palate, it reveals delicate spiciness, a velvety texture, and fruity notes, supported by a solid structure and vibrant acidity.

Vinification
chevron-down

Traditional Bordeaux-style winemaking with fermentation in stainless steel tanks and a maceration period of 14 days. The wine spends only a short time in the tank before bottling to preserve its freshness and fruity aromas.
