Perusini Refosco Friuli

Perusini Refosco Friuli is pure temptation in a glass. It pours deep and dark, releasing waves of juicy black cherries, ripe plums, and crushed forest berries, laced with violets, warm spice, and a touch of earthy allure. The palate is plush and mouth-filling yet beautifully fresh, with succulent dark fruit wrapped in silky tannins that make every sip feel indulgent and effortless. Savoury hints of cocoa and herbs linger on a long, velvety finish, leaving you reaching for the next glass before you’ve even set the first one down. This is Refosco that doesn’t just invite you in, it pulls you back again and again.

Grapes & Type Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso · Red Wines 🍷

Method Magic From the hillside vineyards of Gramogliano, near the Slovenian border, Perusini produces Ribolla Gialla with great care and minimal intervention. Grapes are hand-harvested and gently pressed at low temperatures, then fermented in stainless steel to preserve their aromatic purity. The wine is aged for six months on fine lees—adding texture without losing precision—while avoiding malolactic fermentation to retain its natural acidity and mineral character. Made from 100% Ribolla Gialla grown in ponca (Eocenic loam), the vines are organically farmed and Guyot-trained, with modest yields to ensure concentration. Centuries of cultivation and clonal selection have shaped this wine, long regarded as Perusini’s signature white, and among the most elegant of the Friulian hills.
