The wine is characterized by its velvety texture, balanced tannins, and a long, lingering finish that leaves a memorable impression of richness and depth. It embodies the harmonious blend of Tuscan terroir and meticulous winemaking, delivering a wine that is both powerful and refined.

Pairing

The robust structure and complexity of the Avignonesi “Desiderio” Toscana IGT 2019 make it an excellent companion to hearty dishes, such as braised beef short ribs or a rich lamb stew, where the wine’s intensity and depth can stand up to the bold flavors of the meat. It also pairs beautifully with aged cheeses, offering a counterbalance to their richness and enhancing the overall dining experience with its layered complexity and elegance.

Winery named after the first owners - the Avignonesi family. Since its foundation, it has experienced an exciting journey. Virginia Saverisa acquired the Avignonesi distillery in 2009.

Merlot can produce red wines from medium to full-bodied, with rich but smooth and rounded tannins. Young merlot wine is dominated by aromas of blackberry, raspberry, violet and wild plum, but with aging it can develop aromas of figs, chocolate, leather and truffle.
The hilly terrain and warm climate make Tuscany an ideal region for winemaking. It ranks third by the amount DOC and DOCG category wines after Piemonte and Veneto. Currently the most popular variety is the noble Sangiovese - it is extremely thermophilic and successfully reveals its best traits in warm climates. Wines have a lovely structure, velvety tannins and a fruity aroma, the color is rich ruby red, but the most distinguishable flavor notes are cherries, raspberries and spices.
