Bansella Nizza DOCG from Prunotto is a red wine that interprets the DOCG designation with restraint. In the glass it shows a balance between structure and freshness, with aromas leaning toward ripe red fruits, light spice notes and earthy hints. The body is supported by present but well-integrated tannins, while the acidity adds lift and persistence to the palate. The bottle conveys a sober, measured style, suited to enthusiasts seeking coherence and elegance. It is a wine that calls for attention, favoring substance over aromatic excess.
It pairs with characterful dishes such as red meats, braises and aged cheeses; a short decanting may be suggested for those who wish to open up its aromatic profile. Serve at moderate temperature in wide glasses to enhance the aromatic expression. Suitable for those looking for a structured, well-presented red, the bottle should be tasted directly to appreciate its personal nuances. Also fitting for a restaurant wine list or a domestic selection for convivial occasions.

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.
