Lison-Pramaggiore DOC |
Description to Lison-Pramaggiore DOC
DOC area for red and white wines on the border between the Italian regions of Friuli-Venezia Giulia and Veneto. The area was created in 1968 by merging the previously independent DOC areas of Cabernet di Pramaggiore, Merlot di Pramaggiore and Tocai di Lison. The DOCG area of Lison is identical in terms of area. It stretches from the Adriatic coast in the south between the Tagliamento and Livenza rivers to the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region in the north. Viticulture here dates back to Roman times and was rationalised by the Benedictine order in the 10th century. The temperate climate is characterised by cool, dry north winds (Bora) and hot, humid south-east winds (Scirocco).
In Veneto, the zone includes the municipalities of Annone Veneto, Cinto Caomaggiore, Gruaro, Fossalta di Portogruaro, Pramaggiore and Teglio Veneto, parts of Caorle, Concordia Sagittaria, Portogruaro, San Michele al Tagliamento and Santo Stino di Livenza in the province of Venezia, as well as Meduna di Livenza and parts of Motta di Livenza in the province of Treviso. In Friuli Venezia Giulia, these are the municipalities of Chions, Cordovado and Pravisdomini, as well as parts of Azzano Decimo, Morsano al Tagliamento and Sesto al Reghena in the province of Pordenone. For the Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Pinot Grigio wines, only the Pordenone area applies.
