Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
Merlot is not the first grape most people link with southern Italy, and that is exactly what makes Patrimo worth a place on the rack. Grown on the volcanic soils of Campania, this 2016 bottling blends Old World tradition with modern winemaking, and it shows in the glass. It pours a deep, near-impenetrable ruby, then opens to blackberry and black cherry marmalade laced with cinnamon, nutmeg, a cool flicker of eucalyptus, vanilla and roasted coffee. The palate is smooth and refined. Sweet, fine tannins and well-integrated acidity carry dark fruit and spice into a long finish with a touch of roasted coffee. It suits the Merlot lover who wants to taste the grape through an Italian lens, and it rewards the collector willing to wait. The vintage is approachable now yet expected to keep evolving for another eight to ten years. We carry it because it delivers concentration without heaviness, and because it is a genuinely interesting conversation bottle for anyone exploring the wines of Campania.
Pairs well with
- Braised beef short ribs — The wine's dark fruit and sweet, fine tannins stand up to the richness of slow-braised beef.
- Sunday lasagna supper — Its well-integrated acidity and black cherry fruit cut through layers of sauce and cheese at a hearty Italian family table.
- Aged Pecorino cheese board — The savory depth of aged Pecorino plays off the wine's cinnamon, nutmeg and roasted coffee notes.
