Winery in Trento DOC, Cembra Valley

About the Winery

In the heart of Trentino, nestled within the enchanting Val di Cembra, lies Barone a Prato, a family-owned winery with a noble winemaking heritage dating back to the Council of Trent. For over four generations, the Barone family has cultivated and vinified Pinot Nero "Castelsegonzano" with passion and dedication, beginning in 1885. Located in Piazzo di Segonzano, our winery is more than just a place of production; it is a living testament to history and a vibrant cultural hub, where tradition and innovation meet. Led by Paolo, the noble proprietor and vigneron, Barone a Prato continues to bottle the finest expressions of nature and human craftsmanship. Visitors to our winery are invited to explore a place rich in history, where the art of winemaking is celebrated, and every bottle tells a story of quality, sustainability, and timeless elegance.

About the Wines

Barone a Prato offers a collection of wines that embody the essence of Trentino's unique terroir. Our iconic Pinot Nero "Castelsegonzano" has been a cornerstone of our winery since 1885, representing elegance and complexity that reflect our deep connection to the land. This wine is a true expression of Trentino's winemaking tradition, offering a rich and nuanced experience with every sip.

Another highlight is the Cabernet "dello Scalco", produced from vines that have thrived for over fifty years. This wine showcases refinement and structure, a testament to the winemaking expertise passed down through generations.

The Gewürztraminer "559 LuLu" offers a captivating sensory journey with its intoxicating aroma and rich, enveloping taste. The vineyards at the foot of the Segonzano castle imbue this wine with a distinctive and alluring character, making it a standout in our collection.

Our Chardonnay "SOL" is a sophisticated interpretation of the region’s volcanic terroir, with its pronounced minerality and complex aromatic profile, perfectly balancing tradition and modernity.

Lastly, we proudly present "Artemis" Spumante Metodo Classico, introduced in 2022. This 100% Chardonnay sparkling wine captures the refined spirit of our winery, offering an unforgettable tasting experience.

Nice Wine Tasting
We had booked a tasting of 4 wines online (3 wines, 1 sparkling wine). The tasting took place at the Weinkenner. Paolo, the owner, told us the story behind each wine and label. It was very interesting and the wines tasted good to us, not run-of-the-mill wines, but special. We would gladly come back again. Paolo can speak German well, so communication was good.
We liked the Gewürztraminer the best, but the sparkling wine was also very good.

Lieber Lutz,
vielen Dank für euren Besuch und die netten Worte. Es war schön, unsere Geschichte mit euch zu teilen und euch unsere Weine zu zeigen.
Unsere Weine machen wir von Hand, vom Weinberg bis ins Glas, hier im Cembratal.
Toll, dass euch der Gewürztraminer und unser Sekt so gut geschmeckt haben. Diese Weine zeigen gut, wer wir sind und wie unser Land ist.
Wir freuen uns, wenn ihr wiederkommt. Unsere Kellertür steht euch immer offen.

Liebe Grüße
Paolo – Barone a Prato

Unique experience
We really enjoyed the picnic.
The setting was stunning.
Both bottles were very enjoyable, with the cheeses and Italian meats which complemented each other.
It is such an amazing way to enjoy a
Picnic. It was a beautiful sunny day and being at a foot of a castle over looking amazing vineyards is a great way to end an afternoon.
Thank you.

Paolo is a lovely man but can’t speak or understand any English. It would have being lovely to hear about the wine we were going to drink.
So make it clear when booking if you are English.
It is still a lovely experience..

Picnic in the vineyard
Fantastic experience. The location is very beautiful and the wine is excellent. After a quick visit to the old cellar, you choose the bottle of wine which is accompanied by the picnic basket, provided with everything you need for a relaxing picnic in the shade of the vineyards with a view of the castle. The owner was very helpful and, after the experience, also recommended the route to visit the pyramids of Segonzano, not far from there.
