From this winery
  • Start up year: 1962
  • Oenologist: Antonio Lucarelli
  • Bottles produced: 1.600.000
  • Hectares: 100
Paladin Vigne e Vini is the first winery of the whole Casa Paladin group, it’s a family owned estate founded by our father in 1962, in Motta di Livenza, near Treviso. It’s located at the boundaries of the Venetian land where we moved in the mid-70s, in Annone Veneto, a historic village located in the Roman Postumia road. The passion and love for vine and wine comes from our father, Valentino, who used to follow his grandfather, since he was a child, in the vineyards and in the cellar.

Passion, research, dedication and respect for traditions are the main values that have been guiding his philosophy since he created his own cellar. He was strongly determined to enhance the territorial typicalness of our Lison-Pramaggiore area, by producing excellent wines.

Climate Altitude: 450 m. a.s.l.
Soil composition The soils are produced by the alteration of calcareous-fossiliferous formations, in particular red flake and biancone.
Harvest The harvest takes place in several stages during the last two weeks of September to allow the grapes to ripen optimally. The grapes are harvested by hand and left to dry in the drying room.
Wine making The grapes, harvested in boxes, remain in the drying room until December/January. The loss of water, a consequence of the drying period, favours the concentration of all substances in the grapes. Fermentation and maceration take place in small steel vats.
Aging This is followed by the final fermentation and maturation in 500 000 litre oak casks, where the new wine will remain for about 18-24 months. The Amarone refines further in the bottle until it reaches optimum maturity.
