Zenta Rosso Riserva represents the embodiment of our commitment to quality, excellence, and the constant pursuit of harmony between nature and winemaking art. Each individual bottle of this wine is the result of a meticulous process that begins with the scrupulous selection of the finest Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes (50% each) from our most renowned vineyards.

In accordance with our credo that a great wine is born on the vine, Perusini wine is produced only from the grapes of its own vineyard, all terraced on loam rock (known as Ponca in Friuli) in a splendid position, the vines closely planted in accordance with strict criteria. The in-depth research into native vines that has become a byword for our vineyard over three generations.

The Perusini vineyards are one of the 50 happy few listed by Luigi Veronelli in “I vignaioli storici” (The Italian Wine-growers Bible). Today the estate is run by Giampaolo’s daughter, Teresa, an art historian like her uncle, but also a keen cultivator who divides her time between her studies and running the estate together with her husband Giacomo de Pace and her three sons. 

Maturation: In special 228-litre barriques for at least 36 months and long time in the bottle.
