Made in Italy Wine: Merlot

DOC Friuli Colli Orientali – Dry red wine

Among all grape varieties arrived in Friuli from France in the late nineteenth century, this is definitely the one that found here its ideal habitat. Today, Friuli is a second home for Merlot (the name Merlot is thought to be a diminutive of merle, the French name for the blackbird).
