A great Merlot from Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Magnum format, comes in a beautiful wooden box. It has been awarded several times by the Italian wine guides!

This wine is made exclusively from Merlot grapes grown in 40 years old vineyards named “Calvario”, characterized by a soil called “ponca”. The grapes are harvested by hand, usually in the third decade of September, and macerated for about twenty days at controlled temperature. The wine is aged partly in stainless steel and partly in wooden barrels. Bottling take place in the following Spring. The color is ruby red. It has a characteristic and intense aroma which recalls wild berries. The palate is slightly herbaceous with great structure and softness. Contains sulphites. Produced by GRADIS'CIUTTA - Giasbana, 32/a - S.Floriano del Collio - Italy.

The producer

The company GRADIS'CIUTTA was born in 1997. The name derives from the homonymous village Gradis'ciutta around which are located the historic vineyards of the company. The story tells that the ancient name of the village was "MONSVINI (Monvinoso), clearly linked to a long winemaking tradition. The company has chosen to produce those great wines that characterize this area focusing, therefore, on whites. 85% of vineyards produce white grape varieties: Pinot Grigio, Tocai Friulano, Malvasia, Ribolla Gialla, Sauvignon and Chardonnay. The lands consist of marl and stratified sandstone of Eocene origin, typical of the Collio, locally called "Ponca".
