The Merlot of Perusini comes from vineyards located in the heart of an area rich in winemaking tradition, where the temperate climate and well-drained soils favor the cultivation of this emblematic grape variety. It has an intense ruby red color, the result of careful vinification that preserves the freshness and complexity of the grapes. On the nose, aromas of ripe red fruits such as cherry and plum emerge, accompanied by slight spicy notes and a delicate herbal touch. On the palate, it is harmonious, with a good tannic structure that provides balance and persistence, with a soft and pleasant finish.
The Merlot of Perusini is perfect for pairing with main courses based on red meat or aged cheeses, enhancing every tasting with its territorial elegance. A wine experience that speaks of territory and passion for wine.

The story
The Perusini family has been linked to Friulian viticulture for generations: the family home preserves historical artifacts, and the winery was included by Luigi Veronelli among the "historic winemakers." Over the centuries, family members have selected and promoted indigenous grape varieties—chiefly Picolit and Ribolla Gialla—and that work has been passed down to the current family stewards, who combine tradition with a commitment to research and innovation.
Production philosophy
The company places viticulture at the centre: quality in the vineyard is prioritised to produce wines that express the terroir and the vintage. Its management combines respect for tradition, protection of biodiversity and the adoption of modern winemaking methods. From an environmental standpoint, the company follows sustainable practices and adheres to the principles of certified organic production.
Terroir and vineyards
