An elegant, crisp expression of cool-climate Northern Italian Pinot Noir—crafted with high-altitude finesse and sustainable passion.

Product Overview

Hailing from the picturesque vineyards of Sequals at the foot of the Italian Dolomites, the 2024 Bosco del Merlo "Primont" Pinot Nero is a masterclass in balance and purity. Crafted by the renowned Paladin family under their Equalitas-certified sustainable viticulture initiative, this DOC Friuli red captures the crisp, alpine air and mineral-rich soils of Northern Italy.

Unlike heavier oak-laden Pinot Noirs, the 2024 Primont is aged exclusively in stainless steel tanks for six months. This preserves the grape's natural red fruit aromas, bright acidity, and silky, approachable structure—making it as refreshing as it is refined.

Tasting Notes

  • Appearance: Pale translucent red with delicate garnet highlights.
