Lison-Pramaggiore

The Lison Pramaggiore Protected Designation of Origin includes white, red (also Riserva) and spumante as well as some productions with indication of grape variety: Chardonnay, Sauvignon, Verduzzo (also passito), Merlot (also Riserva), Malbech, Cabernet, Carmenère, Refosco dal peduncolo rosso (also Riserva and Passito), Cabernet franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Pinot grigio.


Grapes

The white Lison Pramaggiore is obtained from grapes coming from vineyards composed, for a quota between 50% and 70%, of Tocai friulano vine. For red wines, on the other hand, an identical percentage of Merlot is required. In the case of single-variety wines, however, this must account for at least 85% of the total. Moreover, in all types, within the limits of the remaining quotas, the use of other similarly coloured grape varieties is permitted, provided that they are included in the list of those used for single-variety production. The only exception is Spumante, which is produced exclusively with Chardonnay, Pinot bianco and/or Pinot nero grapes.


Physicochemical and Organoleptic properties

All Lison Pramaggiore wines are distinguished by their excellent structure and good acid balance. In addition, they release intense aromas of fresh fruit, which give it a strong personality. The red wines are presented in a color ranging from ruby to garnet and have good structure and flavorful texture. Both in smell and taste, unmistakable notes of red fruit emerge. On the palate they give a pleasant sensation of softness and warmth. The white wines, on the other hand, are fresher and have a straw yellow colour, embellished with greenish reflections. They give off a rich perfume, with evident floral and fresh fruit notes, while the taste is markedly savory and persistent. The specific organoleptic characteristics of each production are easily traceable in the product specification.


Grape production area

The production area is located in Veneto in the provinces of Treviso and Venezia, a few kilometers from the coast of Venezia, and in the region of Friuli Venezia Giulia in the province of Pordenone, its boundaries are drawn by the rivers Tagliamento and Livenza.


Specificity and historical notes

Born in the Roman period, viticulture in the area of the denomination has experienced a strong development in the tenth century, with the advent of Benedictine monks.
