Miani Merlot Buri 2020
Red
Colli Orientali Del Friuli, Italy
8.0
WineSaint
Dense and brooding, with crushed blackberry, graphite and dried herbs building slowly in the glass. The palate shows serious concentration, coating the mouth with dark fruit wrapped in muscular yet polished tannins. Earthy minerality and aromatic complexity emerge on the long finish. A tightly coiled powerhouse that needs serious cellaring. Drink 2026-2040.

→Enzo Pontoni's tiny Friulian estate is among Italy's most quietly revered, producing whites and reds from Colli Orientali del Friuli that age far longer than their reputation suggests they should.
