Descrizione

The Occhetti Langhe Nebbiolo DOC from Prunotto offers an elegant, restrained profile consistent with the style of Nebbiolo wines from the Langhe. In the glass it shows a light ruby colour with clear highlights; on the nose there are aromas of small ripe red fruits, faded rose petals and subtle sweet spice notes. The overall impression is fresh and linear, favouring aromatic precision over power.

On the palate it confirms sensations of good acidity and tannins that are present but not excessive, providing a structure that invites drinking; the persistence is pleasant and leaves room for fruity echoes and a slight floral return. It pairs well with Piedmontese dishes, white meat preparations, cured meats and medium-aged cheeses. Serving temperature around 16–18 °C and a short decanting can enhance its expressiveness while keeping the simplicity that makes it suitable for everyday enjoyment.

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.
