A rarity with a fine sweetness and great depth: Verduzzo Friulano is considered a traditional speciality of Friuli and is a true expression of Paolo Meroi's philosophy - the smallest quantities, uncompromising selection and an ageing process that places balance above opulence. The vines grow on the typical Ponca soils of marl and sandstone, which provide freshness and structure. After selective harvest, the grapes are gently pressed and the must fermented in small oak barrels, followed by long ageing on the fine lees. In the glass, the wine is a rich amber colour with golden reflections.

The bouquet is complex and seductive: dried apricots, orange zest, acacia honey, candied pineapple and a delicate flavour of vanilla and hazelnut. On the palate, it has a velvety texture, concentrated sweetness and yet lively acidity, which keeps the final taut and clear. The finish is long, elegant and characterised by a fine mineral vein. A dolce Verduzzo that masterfully maintains its balance - powerful and noble, yet never heavy. Perfect with mature cheese, fine desserts or as a contemplative soloist. A wine that reflects the craftsmanship of Meroi in every facet and inspires meditation ... SUPERIORE.DE
