What grows here

Azzano d'Asti

19 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.

Rising from the southern banks of the Tanaro River, the sunny hills of Azzano d’Asti, originally settled as the estate of the Roman landowner Adius, provide an exceptional microclimate for winegrowing. This territory contributes to 19 protected denominations, led by highly localized reds. Most notable is the Grignolino d'Asti DOC, whose production is restricted to a tight zone of just 34 municipalities. Alongside it, the native Freisa d'Asti DOC and the prestigious Barbera d'Asti DOCG flourish in these particular sandy-clay soils, yielding wines of vibrant acidity and deep historical character.
