5 DAYS IN THE FRIULIAN VINEYARDS

PERUSINI WINERY – CORNO DI ROSAZZO (UD)

The Perusini Winery is one of the happy few (50 in total) listed in Luigi Veronelli’s Historic Italian Winegrowers (Vignaioli storici Italiani). Therefore, it is no coincidence that the earliest medieval depiction of grape harvesting and vinification in Friuli is a fresco of the Perusini-Antonini House in Udine (14th century, now preserved at the Museo Civico). During the last century, when French varietals were still the height of fashion, viticulture in Friuli has Perusini to thank for selecting and safeguarding certain ancient grape varieties. Today, the winery is run by Teresa, Giampaolo’s daughter. Much like her uncle, she is an art historian and avid farmer; she divides her time between her studies and running the winery with the help of her husband, Giacomo de Pace and their three children Carlo, Tommaso and Michele. This way, the family tradition lives on the hills of Gramogliano, which have been known for centuries – together with those of Rosazzo and Rocca Bernarda – for their beautiful landscape, terrain, exposure and microclimate, making them the superior cru of the Colli Orientali del Friuli. The Perusini winery is not only innovative in its winemaking but also in its aesthetic choices. As such, next to the 17th-century manor house, the renovation of the premises included the construction of a unique wine cellar-tower designed by architect Augusto Romano Burelli as part of a study for the Italian Ministry of University and Research on new production typologies in the Mediterranean area. The tower’s interior, traversed by the Foucault pendulum, is decorated with mural paintings by Leon Tarasewicz, sculptures by Gianpietro Carlesso and paintings by Giancarlo Venuto. In recent years, the company has also taken advantage of its beautiful surrounding landscape. Today, guests can choose between 11 lodgings spread out across the three restored farmhouses on the Colle San Biagio and a house in the garden near the pool. All of the apartments have independent access to the surrounding natural environment, with covered terraces with tables and sun loungers to read and relax in the outdoors. Halfway up the Colle di Gramogliano, we have the welcoming “Al Postiglione restaurant”. In the garden of the manor house, there is a swimming pool (7 x 14 m), a ping-pong table and, in the wine cellar – tower, the winery’s store and reception. This area has Wi-Fi. You can see all our accommodation on our website at www.perusini.com. Perusini is located in the centre of historical Friuli in a wonderful hilly landscape dotted with chapels, abbeys and castles connected by scenic trails and cycle paths. You can reach the Alps and sea in less than an hour. As written by Ippolito Nievo, Friuli is a small compendium of the universe. Lastly, the Colli Orientali, on the border between Latin, Germanic and Slavic cultures, are the setting for food and wine tours, as well as new cultural and outdoor experiences – a hidden paradise for sophisticated travellers. For customers and guests, the Perusini estate organises tastings and guided tours of the vineyards and winery. For groups of at least 10 people, we also offer wine tasting courses and cooking classes. Guests have free access to the events organised by the winery: concerts, exhibitions, etc. Since 2011, the Perusini estate has been a certified educational farm and runs school programmes – from nursery through to high school – on viticulture and winemaking, as well as sustainable farming and popular arts and traditions. The Perusini estate has always been eco-friendly: we recover rainwater and use renewable energies (photovoltaic) and environmentally-friendly products. The restoration of our premises for the holiday farm was carried out in line with traditional methods and building materials. Since 2014, the Perusini estate has been switching to organic and is part of the first bio-district of Friuli-Venezia Giulia where seven farms in the Colli Orientali – including several restaurants and accommodation facilities – have a set geographical area where organic products are used, promoted and produced.
