Description

The name Primont celebrates the boxer Primo Carnera, known as “The Ambling Alp” and a native of Sequals. As Carnera used to say, “Punches start from the feet,” and the same applies to the vineyards: the Friulian soil provides the vines with essential nutrients, contributing to wines with a unique character and an unmistakable aromatic profile.

The name "Bosco del Merlo" is derived from local topographical maps which refer to the oak forests that once covered the area. The vineyards of Bosco del Merlo are situated between the ancient Roman consular roads of Via Annia and Via Postumia, dating back to the early centuries after Christ.

The Bosco del Merlo estate winery started up in 1977 in Annone Veneto, founded by siblings Carlo, Lucia and Roberto Paladin. Thanks to a profitable collaboration with the Istituto Sperimentale per la Viticoltura di Conegliano, a careful and modern zoning technique was immediately implemented in order to get the best out of the terroir, working the vineyard piece by piece. In the nineties, in the small town of Lison di Portogruaro, the cradle of viticulture in this wine-making region, a further 50 hectares of land was acquired, which therefore doubled capacity, increasing it to around 100 hectares in total.

Over the course of the years Bosco del Merlo has benefited from the advice of famous oenologists and experts from the Faculties of Oenology and Agriculture in Padua and Milan, such as Franco Bernabei and Leonardo Valenti, in its quest to find the most forward-thinking solutions for achieving optimal quality with the lowest environmental impact.

Wine making The Pinot Noir undergoes fermentation with skin maceration to fully extract the grape’s potential, resulting in a wine rich in elegance and depth of flavor. The process takes place at temperatures between 13 and 15 °C, with two pump-overs per day to encourage the release of polyphenols without damaging the grape skins.
Aging After alcoholic fermentation, the Pinot Noir completes malolactic fermentation, also in stainless steel, and is then aged for six months. This refinement period significantly enhances the wine’s fruity character and natural spiciness.
