More questions
The Pinot Grigio from Perusini shows a simple, straightforward profile, suitable as an everyday white. Made from the eponymous grape variety, it displays a pale straw color and immediate freshness: the nose offers aromas of golden apple, ripe pear and light citrus, with subtle floral hints. On the palate it is lean, with balanced acidity and a linear flavor progression that favors clarity and drinkability over complex structure. The finish is dry and restrained, with fruity echoes that invite another sip.
It works well as a table wine for casual meals or as an aperitif companion; pairs with oily fish, shellfish, summer salads, light pasta dishes and fresh cheeses. Best served chilled, around 8–10 °C, in not-too-large glasses to emphasize aromatic liveliness. This is a versatile option that suits quick lunches as well as relaxed evenings; as a Pinot Grigio without further specification, it is recommended to drink it young to enjoy its freshness.

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
Situated in the municipality of Corno di Rosazzo, in the Colli Orientali del Friuli. The vineyards are cultivated on terraced slopes with Eocene marl soil, which confers distinctive soil and microclimatic conditions and exposure.
Awards and recognition
