Federico Primo, born in 1979, arrived in the world of wine through an unconventional path: after several years serving as the chief financial officer (CFO) of an international company, he found himself not fully happy.
A great wine enthusiast, he then matured the decision to realize the dream of becoming a wine producer: in 2017, after a careful planning and study process, he identified Tenuta la Meridiana, a winery in the Monferrato region located in Montegrosso d'Asti focused on the production of Barbera d'Asti.
Despite his origins as an economist and controller, always careful about risk, Federico accepted this entrepreneurial challenge without hesitation. Thanks to commitment, careful planning and hard work, day by day Tenuta la Meridiana grew, oriented itself towards sustainability, expanded its portfolio of products and customers, and focused on continuous improvement, attentive on one side to respecting tradition and the terroir, and on the other to the continuous changes in the market and context in which it operates.
Today Federico is a happy "new" agricultural entrepreneur, who has realized his dream of working in contact with nature, combining his managerial skills with a passion for wine and the promotion of the Italian territory.
Tenuta La Meridiana is now a company focused on producing high quality wines characteristic of its territory, especially Barbera d'Asti, attentive to sustainability, but also strongly market-oriented, ready to take on new challenges and contribute to the growth of the "Made in Italy" reputation.
