What grows here
Montaldo Torinese
16 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Situated exactly 18 kilometers east of Turin's metropolitan center, Montaldo Torinese capitalizes on the distinct microclimate of the Chieri hills to shape delicate, aromatic wines. This specific terroir is crucial for the Freisa di Chieri DOC, a characterful Piedmontese red produced in a restricted zone of just 13 municipalities. In total, Montaldo Torinese boasts 16 protected denominations overlapping its territory, including the local Collina Torinese DOC. The steep clay slopes here provide the precise drainage and sun exposure needed to develop the bright acidity of these historic local grape varieties.
