GERETTO WINE SHOP
It was in the fifties when Cav. Antonio Geretto started the wine business off through his family more for the love of it than main objectives. The growing understanding towards the produce introduced to the market and a great increase in the spreading of it, intensified the production and the wine business, allowed this to be known as an original and pure vine. This is how the wine company Geretto Antonio Snc was founded.
Deliveries in Europe only.

LINE MERK: Merk wines are produced in the same vineyard belonging to the Geretto family situated in Scodovacca di Cervignano in the Friuli Aquileia Doc area. This is an expansive area of 18 acres of highly vined land located in the lower part of Friuli. On an alluvial ground which is sandy and muddy with a particularly mild climate which is fundamental to the influence of the sea.
This ambience enables rich wines with good alcohol content to be produced especially in the Scodovacca area. The high quality and pleasantness of these red wines cannot be found anywhere else. The original typical "Refosco dal peduncolo rosso", is the Friuli wine that has been consideres with great interest and which will be focused for the future.

TREUVE BIANCO Barrique
The peculiarities of Sauvignon, Tocai Friulano and Pinot Bianco shape the nature of this wine, where the harmonic union among three grapes is the result of a scrupulous and diligent research. After a separate wine-making and a breaf permanence in barrique barrels there is the assemblage that aims to magnify the different characteristics of these three valuable vines of our land. The intense smell and the fullness of the taste makes it ideal to drink with Parma ham and roasted fish. Serve at 12°.



TREUVE ROSSO Barrique
This wine is obtained from the union of Refosco, Cabernet Franc and Merlot Grapes, separately vinified and then assembled in equal quantity in order to allow each to give its own characteristics.
The permanence in barrique barrels for eight months and the following sharpening in bottle garantees harmony and great pleasure.
The definite taste and structure make it ideal to drink with braised, grilled meats and game.
Serve at 17-18°.



REFOSCO “VIGNE VECCHIE“ Barrique
This wine is produced in a zone where the particular microclimate garantees to Refosco vine its best expression, and comes from vines with more than twenty years. After a long maceration, it matures for about eight months in barrique barrels and then in bottle.
Strong, full and velvety, Refosco Vigne Vecchie has a typical bouquet; for its elegance and delicacy it's an important wine also for meal. The tradition couple it with stewed guinea-hen; ideal with feathered game and aged vaccine cheese. Serve at 17-18°.

The care and attention to the choice of grape and wines found more space in Friuli also, as well as the Veneto region. It wasn't before too late that these wines were recognised and given prizes in wine tastings of the area.
In 1976 the Agricola Merk company was taken over, in the doc wine area Friuli Aquileia, in order to meet and satisfy the needs of a market more focused on the quality of the product.
Today Dino Geretto with his wife Carla and their two sons Flavio and Antonio renew within the original company at San Stino di Livenza a more traditional winery more focused on the increase of its market and on the quality needs of the consumer with the wines of the "Casa Geretto Srl and Merk", continuing the family tradition of love for the earth and its wine.
