Marchesi di Gresy Monferrato Rosso is a remarkable 100% Merlot from Piedmont — a grape variety more associated with Bordeaux than Barbera country, but one that has found an exceptional home in the commune of Cassine in the Asto zone. Originally planted to blend with Barbera, winemaker Alberto decided the juice was simply too good to blend, and bottled it as a single varietal. Aged for 12 months in used French barriques followed by a further 24 months in Slovenian oak casks, this is a spicy, rich wine with forest fruits and plums on the nose, dark fruits, toasty cedar, and vanilla on the palate, with ripe tannins leading to a long, structured finish.
Why You'll Love It
This is 100% Merlot from Marchesi di Gresy, one of Piedmont's most respected estates, produced under the DOC Monferrato appellation from vineyards in the commune of Cassine in the Asto zone. The decision to bottle this as a single varietal rather than blending it with Barbera speaks to the exceptional quality of the fruit from this site. The extended oak ageing programme — 12 months in used French barriques followed by 24 months in Slovenian oak casks, totalling three years of maturation — develops extraordinary complexity and structure while allowing the Merlot's natural richness and fruit character to shine through. Winemaker Matteo Sasso oversees production, crafting a wine that is vegetarian and vegan-friendly. This is Piedmontese Merlot with depth, complexity, and genuine ageing ambition.

Evidence boundary
This page combines the recorded bottle identity with linked source records. An exact region-name match supplies regional context but does not prove that this bottle carries the protected designation. A vineyard is only shown as bottle-level evidence when a wine-to-vineyard link exists. BottlePicker does not infer a vineyard, soil or site climate from a retailer title.
