The Company The Company
La Tenuta di Costa Prà , managed by its resident owner Mauro Zabot., is beginning to take its place among the leading wine producing vineyards.
It is located on the best hills of the Langhe in the municipality of Clavesana. It enjoys a location ideally suited for vineyards. Of its 84 acres, only a little over 12 of the best-exposed are laid out for the culture of vines. . The remaining are made up of woods, meadows, and fields; cared for in such a way as to maintain a natural harmonic environment. Paths wind through the woods that encircle the estate, and in the warm seasons they are suitable for pleasant walks to admire the flora typical of the area.
At dusk one can see the woods' inhabitants: hares, badgers, foxes, boars ... while during the day one can see the buzzards sailing in the sky.
The peace, tranquillity, and harmony of this place are made more pleasing by the extensive and captivating panorama. It's a panorama particularly enchanting in the autumn when the limpid sky permits one to see almost beyond the horizons.
The winery is open for visit throughout the year on appointment (tel 0173-790467). It can be easily reached in a half-hour from Alba, Bra or Modovi.
