our
HISTORY
Our family’s roots run deep in the land of Carmignano, an area historically devoted to viticulture. In 1875, Pietro Pratesi laid the foundations of this long tradition by moving to Lolocco. Today, the winery continues along this path in its modern vineyards, planted at high density and cultivated according to organic farming principles, with the aim of protecting the environment and biodiversity. Our daily commitment is to work in harmony with nature, respecting the land and the wildlife that live in symbiosis with it.

our
wines
In the heart of the Carmignano appellation, our red wines are born an authentic expression of a historic and extraordinary terroir. Each bottle tells a different nuance of the same land, bound by a clear common thread: elegance, structure, and strong identity. Our selection is the result of rigorous choices in both vineyard and cellar, with deep respect for time and nature. The labels, enriched by original artworks from master artist Marcello Scuffi, translate the soul of our wines into images. From the vibrant freshness of Locorosso to the layered complexity of Carmione, from the harmonious power of Il Circo Rosso to the profound depth of I Sassi di Lolocco, each wine is an experience that leaves a lasting impression.
our
oil
In the hills of Carmignano, in the heart of Tuscany, our Extra Virgin Olive Oil is born an authentic expression of a generous land and a centuries old agricultural tradition. Obtained from carefully selected olives and cold-pressed to preserve its aromas and freshness, it stands out for its harmonious and well-balanced profile, rich in elegant green notes. An oil with a sincere character, capable of enhancing every dish with natural elegance and refinement.

our
territory
Carmignano is one of the oldest wines in Italy, with origins dating back to the Etruscan era, as evidenced by the discovery of wine vessels found in Etruscan tombs on Monte Albano. The first written record appears in 1396, when Ser Lapo Mazzei, a notary from Carmignano, informed the merchant Marco Datini of Prato of the purchase of fifteen some of Carmignano wine for his cellar, at the price of 16 lire per soma. A value four times higher than that of local wines at the time, clearly highlighting the prestige and extraordinary quality that this wine already possessed.
