The Winery

Alfredo Prunotto founded his business in 1922 and was one of Piemonte’s most dynamic exporters until his retirement in 1956. The company passed to Prunotto’s friend Beppe Colla, now a revered winemaker and one of the founding fathers of modern Piemonte. Grapes come exclusively from the Costamiòle vineyard in the Agliano area, with light-coloured clay soil rich in calcareous marl. This area is part of the warm Nizza sub-zone, which gives the highest-quality Barbera in the Asti region.
