Merlot
A nice wine, a red to open in company, at the last moment with 4 friends who want to get together and spend good time together. A quick lunch red, a red to uncork without thinking
The producer
Grillo Iole
Una realtà familiare nel cuore di Prepotto. Da oltre 50 anni lavoriamo lo Schioppettino con rispetto e concretezza. Crediamo nel vino come relazione: accoglienza, persone e autenticità.
Being from Friuli inevitably means producing a wide range of wines. But there is a single common thread: authentic wines that tell the story of Prepotto without pretence. The range spans whites — Ribolla Gialla, Friulano, Sauvignon, including those aged in wood — and reds, vinified in both steel and wood, with a strong focus on Schioppettino di Prepotto and historic grape varieties such as Refosco and Merlot. Rounding off the range are a rosé and two sweet wines: Verduzzo and Picolit. In the cellar, the philosophy is to intervene as little as possible: each wine has its own personality, but all share elegance and freshness on the palate.
