What grows here

Chiusano d'Asti

18 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.

Chiusano d'Asti, a tiny Piedmontese outpost of just 239 residents in the Asti province, channels its steep, sun-exposed hillsides into 18 protected denominations. This minuscule community excels in viticulture, acting as a crucial micro-terroir within the zone of 117 municipalities defined for Freisa d'Asti DOC. Here, the local soils yield the rustic, cherry-scented Freisa grape alongside the robust Barbera d'Asti DOCG. The area's distinct clay-limestone marls grant these wines their signature high acidity, proving that even this small Asti settlement plays a vital role in shaping Piedmont's certified wine map.
