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.

wines
In the heart of the historic Carmignano appellation, our red wines are born true expressions of the Tuscan territory and our deep passion for high quality winemaking. Each bottle reveals a unique soul, yet they all share the same essence: elegance, structure, and the character of our land.
100% Sangiovese, 100% Merlot, and two refined Super Tuscans are the stars of our selection. Every label is adorned with original artwork by the renowned painter Marcello Scuffi, whose dreamlike landscapes visually capture the spirit of our wines. From the vibrant freshness of Locorosso, to the complexity of Carmione, the bold balance of Il Circo Rosso, and the depth of I Sassi di Lolocco, we invite you to discover the soul of our reds wines that tell the story of our land, our heritage, and our vision.

our
territory
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.
