Paladin

Paladin Vigne e Vini is an important winery based in Annone Veneto, in the province of Venice. It is located on the route of the ancient Roman road Postumia, an important commercial artery that connected the ports of Genoa and Aquileia, crossing the entire Po Valley. Founded in 1962, it has managed to preserve its original family face over time. The passion for viticulture has been handed down from generation to generation, and the estate is still managed following local customs. The winery's philosophy has always been geared toward the production of wines with a typically territorial taste, which focus on the enhancement of the grape varieties historically grown in the Lison-Pramaggiore area.

The vines are rooted in the Caranto soils, consisting of a clay-limestone matrix, which for centuries have proved very suitable for the most famous international grape varieties, namely: Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec and Syrah. The mild, temperate climate is characterized by Mediterranean undertones and made gentle by breezes from the Adriatic Sea. In the countryside, the principles of sustainable viticulture are applied, with the use of satellite systems that make it possible to map in the territory and carry out treatments only when and where strictly necessary.  Thanks to favorable soil and climatic conditions and shrewd management of the vines, Paladin is able to produce high quality wines that perfectly reflect the rich varietal profile of the grape varieties.

Over the years, Paladin has completed a number of important acquisitions, which have allowed the winery's sphere of influence to expand into other precious wine territories of the Italian peninsula. In addition to the historic Veneto estate, today Paladin manages the Bosco del Merlo estate near Annone, the Castelvecchi Farm in the Chianti Classico area, the historic Castello Bonomi estate in Franciacorta and Casa Lupo in the heart of Valpolicella. A very wide and diverse range of labels, ranging from Metodo Classico to great reds for aging and fresh, fruity whites. What the labels from such different geographical areas have in common is an ongoing commitment to the pursuit of quality, the winery's true trademark.
