The 2007 Merlot Campo del Viotto is impressive. Crushed red berries, flowers, licorice, new leather and deftly balanced French oak meld together effortlessly in this silky, racy red. The Campo del Viotto shows none of the green or herbal qualities that are so typical of Friulian reds. This is another perfumed, elegant and totally refined wine from Scarbolo. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2017.
I was quite taken with the higher-end wines I tasted from Scarbolo this year. It would be nice to see a little more attention paid to the entry-level bottlings.
