In 1904 a co-operative winery called Ai Vino Delle Langhe was founded, and a young man who worked there was one Alfred Prunotto. Prunotto took over the estate in 1922, giving it his own name and today it is run under the umbrella of the famous Marchesi Antinori family. Located in Alba the estate tends around 50 hectares of vineyards throughout the Langhe and Monferrato and produces a range of fine wines from the heady Moscato d'Alba to delicious Barbera, Dolcetto and Nebbiolo. A the top end lie a range of single cru wines from Barolo, Barbaresco and the DOC's of Nebbiolo d'Alba, Barbera d'Alba, Dolcetto d'Alba and Barbera d'Asti. Classic Piedmont wines produced with style by the Antinori family.

Nebbiolo wines are renowned for their elegance, complexity, and longevity. They hail predominantly from the Piedmont region in northwest Italy, particularly in areas like Barolo and Barbaresco, where the grape thrives in the region's unique microclimate and soil conditions.
The wines pair exceptionally well with a variety of dishes, thanks to their acidity, tannins, and flavor profile. They are particularly well-suited to rich, hearty dishes such as braised meats, game, truffle-infused dishes, and aged cheeses. Their versatility also allows them to complement more delicate dishes like mushroom risotto or roasted poultry.
