The Merlot Friuli Grave DOC from I Magredi is a red wine that perfectly embodies the expression of the Merlot varietal, well adapted to the vibrant terroir of Friuli. This wine, sourced from the gravelly and mineral-rich banks typical of the Grave area in Friuli, benefits from a unique microclimate characterized by warm days and cool night breezes ideal for grape ripening.

On the nose, Merlot Friuli Grave DOC offers a rich and complex bouquet with accents of ripe red fruits such as cherry and plum, underscored by delicate hints of vanilla and light spices from the aging in wood.
