What grows here

Asti

19 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.

Once a powerful medieval commune whose merchants minted their own currency to drive European trade, Asti now channels its mercantile legacy into 19 protected denominations. This historic heart of the Astesana territory champions distinctive local viticulture, led by the bright, tannic Grignolino d'Asti DOC, a wine grown across a tight zone of 34 municipalities, and the robust Freisa d'Asti DOC. Today, 5 verified producers are based directly within the municipality, safeguarding these ancestral viticultural traditions, with 2 opening their cellars to invite international wine enthusiasts to taste history in the glass.
