Descrizione

The Bansella Nizza DOCG from Prunotto, offered here in magnum housed in a wooden case, appears elegant in the glass. The color is deep with lively highlights, while the nose opens with notes of ripe red fruit and blackberry accompanied by spicy and floral hints; subtle earthy nuances are also noticeable, adding complexity without overpowering. On the palate it is full and harmonious, supported by a balanced tannic framework and a freshness that enhances drinkability; the persistence aligns with the olfactory impressions, delivering fruity echoes and light saline notes on the finish.

This magnum format, enhanced by the wooden case, is suitable both for cellar storage and as a display for convivial occasions. It is recommended to open the bottle in advance to allow the wine to express itself fully and to serve it at a moderate temperature; it pairs naturally with traditional dishes, roasts and aged cheeses, leaving room for the wine's personality.

Winery history

Prunotto was born from the experience of the cooperative 'Ai Vini delle Langhe' and takes its name from Alfredo Prunotto, who assumed its leadership. In the post‑war period, management passed to technical figures such as Beppe Colla, who in the 1960s initiated the practice of separate vinification of crus. From the late 1980s a commercial collaboration and subsequent integration with the Marchesi Antinori family developed; from the 1990s Albiera Antinori contributed to steering the company’s strategy toward the acquisition and enhancement of prestigious vineyards and varietal development.

Production philosophy

The production approach combines respect for local tradition with openness to innovation: careful vineyard management, enhancement of individual crus, and experimentation with grape varieties, to express the territorial character in specific labels.

Terroir and vineyards

The winery operates in the Langhe and Monferrato region, with vineyards and cru sites distributed across the Barolo, Barbaresco, Nizza, Alba and Monferrato areas. Historic sites include Bussia, Bric Turot, Costamiòle, Pian Romualdo, Bricco Colma and other parcels in Langhe, Roero and Monferrato.

Awards and recognitions

Individual wines from Prunotto have received recognition in international competitions and rankings; some labels have been awarded medals in competitions such as the International Wine Competition / Rodeo Uncorked.
