About Winery and Wines
History, Sustainability and Friendship
The story behind Prever is as unique as the wines themselves. Grab a glass
of Nebbie Autunnali, and you can taste the history,
sense the friendship and take comfort in the organic practices which weave
this distinctive story together.
The vineyard itself is situated on the grounds of a historic hunting lodge
which dates back to the 1600’s, when this location was owned by the
D’Angennes Royal family.
However, this territory has even deeper historic
roots as the vines can be traced back to Roman times when they were the
cradle of the famous Nebbiolo grape in the Middle Ages. The first document
to report its presence is in fact dated 1266.
Fast forward to the 2000s when the second generation of Prever-Chiarle
heirs took on the challenge.
Giulia was joined by her friend Valentina, and
the two women who had strong ideas and lots of passion would
revolutionize the company. They enhanced the ancient grapes through
modern oenological methods and in 2011 built a new cellar, entirely
powered by solar energy.
With their clear focus on sustainability, they manually harvest the grapes,
use shoots as organic fertilizers and reuse water supplies to reduce their
impact on the environment.
Prever wines are an excellent combination of sophistication, sustainability
and enjoyment. They have won a number of awards and their unique
aromas are guaranteed to delight the experienced sommelier as well as the
everyday wine enthusiast.
