Description

This wine is not just a Merlot but a story of passion and tradition. It comes from an ancient clone, hand-picked by the winemaker, who has been refining the results for many years. It has earned two emblems (3 glasses) in the prestigious Gambero Rosso “Guide To The Wines of Italy” for good reason. It seduces the senses with its spicy aroma, its rich chocolate and red fruit flavours, and its smooth texture. It lingers on the palate with a hint of toasting from its ageing in small French oak barrels. It pairs perfectly with meat and cheese, or simply with good company.

Perusini Wines

The Perusini family are strong believers in cultivating native grape varieties that surpass the norm and create beauty and notes that connote their place of origin. Their success began when they rediscovered the noble ancient vine of Friuli, the Picolit. They were the first to select and cultivate it on the Colli Orientali and the first to introduce it to the rest of the world. Perusini strive to grow their vineyards as sustainably as possible by focussing on organic principles.
