2015 i Clivi ‘Galea’ Friuli Colli Orientali Rosso Merlot

$42

Galea is one of i Clivi's two vineyard crus, from 70-year-old vines. Lovely aromas of ripe red cherry and plums with an under layer of leather, earthy mushrooms, spice, and supple tannins.

Ferdinando Zanusso founded I Clivi when he returned to Italy after thirty years and three different careers in Africa, including a stint in the United Nations World Food Program. His son Mario joined just after its inception and is involved in all aspects of the farm. Together they seek the fullest expression of their highly reputed terroir in Friuli’s esteemed Colli Orientali del Friuli and Collio growing districts. What distinguishes I Clivi from their peers are their devastatingly low yields, steep terrain, and old vines that range from sixty to eighty years of age.
