Marchesi di Gresy Langhe Virtus Rosso 2010

Marchesi di Gresy Langhe Virtus Rosso 2010 is a richly layered Piedmontese red that brings together the traditional soul of Barbera with the structure and depth of Cabernet Sauvignon. Crafted from fruit grown on south-facing slopes just below the celebrated Martinenga estate, it offers a fine balance of power, elegance, and the kind of old-world charm that makes mature Langhe wines so compelling.

Makuprofiili
In the glass, it shows a deep ruby-red colour that hints at its concentration and age. The bouquet is expressive and complex, with ripe dark and red fruit, rose petals, pepper, dark chocolate, and subtle chalky mineral notes, all woven together with a polished, mature character. On the palate, the wine is concentrated yet beautifully balanced, with Barbera’s natural freshness supporting the richer, firmer frame of Cabernet Sauvignon. Expect layers of dark fruit, spice, and savoury depth, carried through to a long, elegant finish. With its late-release style and careful bottle ageing, this is a wine that already shows well, but can continue to develop gracefully over time.

Viininvalmistus
The grapes come from south-facing vineyards in Langhe, positioned below Marchesi di Gresy’s Martinenga property, where the exposure and hillside terroir help ensure full ripeness. Barbera and Cabernet Sauvignon are vinified separately, then blended only just before bottling. Each component spends 28 months ageing in French oak barrels before further maturation in bottle prior to release.

Ruoka & tarjoilu
This is an excellent match for rich, savoury dishes such as roasted lamb, braised beef, game, mushroom risotto, or aged hard cheeses. Serve it at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting for about 30–60 minutes if drinking now, especially if you want to let its mature aromas open fully.

Tuottaja
Marchesi di Gresy has been in the hands of the di Grésy family since 1797 and is now one of the most respected names in Langhe and Monferrato. The estate’s modern winemaking story began in the early 1970s, when Alberto di Grésy started bottling the family’s own grapes with a clear focus on expressing terroir and tradition. Today, the family produces wine exclusively from its own vineyards, and Martinenga remains a benchmark site in Barbaresco, admired for producing some of the region’s most elegant wines.
