2015 Feudi di San Gregorio Patrimo Rosso Irpinia Campania, Italy

WINERY NOTES



Deep Ruby Red Aroma Perfumes of blackberry preserves are evident, as are sweet spices, eucalyptus, vanilla, and coffee. The tannins are sweet, fine and soft, and very well balanced. The finish has a long persistence of sensations of fruit, spices, and roasted coffee.



Cultivated in Italy since the late nineteenth century, Merlot has adapted to different soils and climates, showing a versatile personality, sometimes with surprising results. Pàtrimo is a wine born by chance because no one knew there were Merlot plants in Irpinia. The story begins with an old supplier that was delivering grapes and not declaring them as Merlot. Then, after checking the vineyards, Feudi noticed that these grapes had different suppleness, shapes and morphologies than the grapes they thought they were purchasing. From there, this important wine became a new expression of Merlot. Pàtrimo expresses the terroir, the cool climate, and all the freshness, acidity and richness that Irpinia offers. It is a vineyard that takes in the sun, as it should in the south, but which actually has an elegance and a freshness linked to a northern climate. Therefore, Pàtrimo is a treasure found by chance. Extraordinary on its own, or it pairs well with roasted or stewed red meats, and flavorful cheeses.
