our
HISTORY
Our family has deep roots in the territory of Carmignano, an area historically dedicated to viticulture. In 1875, Pietro Pratesi began this long tradition, moving to Lolocco. Today, the company continues to produce its fine wines in modern vineyards planted at high density, using organic agriculture that protects the environment and promotes biodiversity. Our daily commitment is to work in harmony with nature, respecting the territory and the fauna in symbiosis with it. In this way, every bottle of wine and every drop of oil that we produce tells the story of a deep bond with the land, of a tradition that evolves in respect of natural resources, to offer authentic and high-quality products.

Did you know that…
Carmignano is one of the oldest wines in Italy. Its production dates back to the Etruscan era, as demonstrated by the findings of vases containing wine in Etruscan tombs discovered on Monte Albano. The first written document that mentions Carmignano wine dates back to 1396. On this occasion, a notary from Carmignano, Ser Lapo Mazzei, informs a merchant from Prato, Marco Datini, that he had purchased fifteen sums of Carmignano wine for his cellar, paying a price of “16 lire per sum”. This price was four times higher than that of local wines, a detail that underlines the exceptional quality of this wine.
