About This Wine...

Made 100% from Barbera grapes which grow in the area defined by the specifications regarding wine production for that zone. The choice of well-suited land and the care in the vineyards aimed at producing a limited and balanced crop, alleviated the excessive harshness of this traditional Piemontese wine, bestowing on it instead lovely smooth and fruity characteristics. The
approximately ten months of aging in 75-Hl French oak barrels and 4 months of bottle aging make this wine very enjoyable and ready to drink.

PRUNOTTO Piedmont
In 1904 a cooperative Ai Vini delle Langhi was set up by wine growers of the area; this was subsequently taken over and renamed by Alfredo Prunotto in 1923. After another change of ownership, Antinori acquired the estate and have maintained the excellent level of quality sought by Alfredo Prunotto. Prunotto were the first winery to establish the Cru’s concept and is one of the top five estates in Piedmont.
