Villa Gresti (named in honour of Marchesi’s ancestor Gemma di Gresti who helped
repatriate thousands of Italian prisoners of war from Russia after World War I).
An impressive wine for an impressive lady, Villa Gresti is fast closing the gap
on San Leonardo and based as it is on a different blend (90% Merlot) from
separate vineyards is not a second wine but an alternative expression of the
estate’s unique terroir. This leaves many big-name and bigger-price Pomerols in
the shade.
"A very subtle, enticing red that shows dried blackcurrants, dried cedar,
walnuts and tobacco. Finely spiced and structured with firm tannins and driven
acidity. Drink from 2021." 92 pts, James Suckling
