Prunotto is one of the most famous names in Langa and not only, we are talking about the early twentieth century when Alfredo Prunotto decided to acquire, together with his wife, the Cantina Sociale giving it its own name. Thanks to their love for their homeland and to their great passion for their work, the young couple quickly became known all over the world for the quality of their wines. In 1956 Alfredo decides to retire from business and he hands over the winery to his friend, Beppe Colla, who immediately starts buying vineyards in the most suited areas for the production of Barolo and Barbera. At the beginning of the nineties the winery was acquired by the Antinori family and nowadays there are more than 50 hectares of vineyards scattered between Langhe and Monferrato, the estate is growing but the style of making wine does not change, keeping the excellent quality level wanted by Alfredo Prunotto. The work in the cellar is based on constant research and experimentation, with the continuous evaluation of the ways and times for the care of the vineyards and for the production of each wine, respecting its characteristics and enhancing its best potential. Prunotto has invested in the qualitative development of the vineyard by using rootstocks and clones which are best suited for every single plot.<\/p>\n

In the Nizza area, about 19 kilometers from Asti, there are about 10 hectares of vineyards exposed to south\/southwest and cultivated with Barbera, from which Bansella Nizza DOCG and Costami\u00f2le Nizza DOCG Riserva are produced. This area, which became DOCG only in the recent 2014, is historically the most suited for the production of Barbera. An area capable of representing for Barbera what Barolo represents for Nebbiolo. Prunotto has always offered, alongside an important line dedicated to the great classics of the Langhe and Monferrato, a selection of excellence produced from some of the most representative crus of the area.
\nGrapes from the oldest vines on top of the hill are selected for the production of Costamiole, a vineyard in the municipality of Agliano Terme. The climate of this area tends to be warmer than the area of Alba and the composition of the soil, characterized by the presence of clayey-silt marls, gives wines of great concentration and complexity. A wine which will surprise you for its smoothness and sensuality.<\/p>\n
