Serrico
super tuscan
Serrico comes from the best selection of Merlot from our cellar. It stands out for its Chiantigiano spirit, giving life to elegant and other times wine. A pure Merlot that wants to make it clear how even an international grape variety can take root with great energy and vigor in our land. This wine was born from the awareness of honoring our father Enrico Nardi, for the great work and the superb passion with which he lived and led the company.

balanced and soft. The fruits perceived by the nose also return to the palate, and give a fresh, elegant finish

wine to combine with courses based on game, but like all great wines, it is also wonderful to sip on its own.
