The Dolcetto d'Alba DOC from Prunotto presents itself as an everyday red wine, aimed at those who seek drinkability and unpretentious simplicity. On the nose it offers fresh notes of small red fruits and a light floral hint reminiscent of violet; the aromatic profile remains clean and immediate. On the palate it shows soft tannins, pleasant freshness and a lean structure that makes it suitable for near-term consumption. Alcohol level and body are balanced, promoting easy drinking. It has a bright red colour, consistent with its youth, and a pleasant, unobtrusive finish.

It is a versatile choice to accompany regional dishes, cured meats, fresh cheeses and preparations based on vegetables or simply prepared white meats. It also suits informal occasions, such as family meals or dinners with friends, where simplicity is appreciated. Storage and service require standard conditions: moderate serving temperature and consumption within the first years after release to best express its youthful characteristics.

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.
