The Colla family (former owners of Prunotto during their most legendary years, 1956 to 1994) has been a winemaking family in the Langhe since the beginning of the 18th century. Despite their long history, Poderi Colla is actually one of the newest estates in the region. It was started in 1994 by Tino Colla and his niece, Frederica (the daughter of the legendary winemaker Beppe Colla). With over 300 years of experience, the Colla family have enjoyed a success that elevates them to Piemontese royalty. 

Costa Bruna expresses all the fresh and drinkable features of Barbera at its best, together with the elegance of the marly soil of Langhe. When the Colla family met the Costa Bruna vineyard, it was almost by chance. When the family purchased the Cru Roncaglie in Barbaresco, they discovered a treasure placed exactly inside another treasure: 2 HA of Barbera that was at least 90 years old.

Purplish red, vinous and complex bouquet of strawberries and cherries, floral and spicy. Full-bodied in the mouth, fresh acidity, pleasant both in the first years and when mature. A wine for the whole meal, it perfectly matches pasta, soups and pies, and is excellent in the kitchen for the preparation of sauces and meat stews.
