Cantina Puianello was founded in 1938 by five winemaking families. Further members subsequently joined the cooperative, whose vineyards expanded to 300 ha, 80% on mountain slopes. Following a merger with Coviolo, the cooperative had 398 members and 436 ha of vineyards in 2005. The winery and its equipment underwent a major renovation in 2012.
