The Perusini Friuli Colli Orientali Pinot Grigio appears a brilliant straw yellow color in the glass. Aromas of banana and peach pulp with hints of yellow flowers. Full bodied on the palate with a fragrant tropical fruitiness. The pronounced acid structure cleanses the palate and has a long finish. It is a wine with great balance.
The grapes were harvested by hand and gently pressed in a pneumatic press. Vinification took place in modern stainless steel tanks with controlled temperature. For the following 7 months the wine was left in contact with the fine lees. The wine has not gone through malolactic fermentation, in the effort to retain the original fruit aromas.
The Perusini vineyards are one of the 50 happy few listed by Luigi Veronelli in “I vignaioli storici” (The Italian Wine-growers Bible). For centuries, the hills of Gramogliano have been renowned, like Rosazzo and Rocca Bernarda, not just for their natural beauty, but also for the terrain, position and microclimate that make up the cru hors classe of Friuli’s Colli Orientali.
