Livio Felluga Vertigo 2023

Livio Felluga Vertigo 2023 is a polished Friuli red that brings together Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon in a style that is both regionally rooted and internationally appealing. Merlot provides a supple, approachable core, while Cabernet Sauvignon adds structure, depth, and the kind of balance that gives the wine real ageing potential. As the name suggests, Vertigo captures a sense of motion and tension, reflecting the dynamic character of modern Friulian winemaking.

Tasting Notes
Expect a deep ruby-red colour with youthful vibrancy in the glass. The nose should offer ripe dark berries, plum, and subtle spice, with a refined savoury edge and the freshness typical of Friuli giving the bouquet lift and clarity. On the palate, Vertigo is likely to be medium-bodied and well-structured, with Merlot bringing softness and roundness and Cabernet Sauvignon contributing tannin, grip, and complexity. The finish should be harmonious and persistent, with enough balance and structure to suggest several years of development in bottle.

Production
Produced in Friuli-Venezia Giulia, a region known for its cool climate influences and diverse soils, Vertigo reflects the interplay between freshness and ripeness that defines the area. The blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot is crafted to combine fruit purity with structure, with careful vinification aimed at preserving varietal character, balance, and the wine’s ageing potential.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs well with grilled beef, roast lamb, game birds, mushroom-based dishes, and mature hard cheeses. Serve it at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 30–60 minutes if enjoyed young, to help the aromas open and the structure soften.
