What grows here
Corneliano d'Alba
23 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Corneliano d'Alba, home to just over 2,100 residents in Piedmont's Cuneo province, thrives on the sandy hillsides of the Roero region. This distinct soil structure fuels the prestigious Roero DOCG, a designation shared within a highly restricted zone of 19 municipalities. The local sandy terrain imparts a lighter, intensely aromatic profile to the Nebbiolo grapes, distinguishing them from heavier clay-grown varieties nearby. This specific terroir also defines the Nebbiolo d'Alba DOC, produced here within a zone of 32. In total, the municipality hosts 23 protected denominations.
