What grows here
Mongardino
19 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Mongardino, rooted in the historic Astesana territory of Piedmont's Asti province, channels its distinctive hilly terroir into 19 protected denominations. This specialized viticultural environment is particularly suited for Grignolino d'Asti DOC, a red wine confined to a zone of just 34 municipalities. Here, local clay and limestone soils also nurture Freisa d'Asti DOC and Barbera d'Asti DOCG. To experience these wines first-hand, visitors can seek out the 2 verified producers operating within the municipal borders, both of whom open their cellar doors to share the authentic taste of these Astesana hillsides.
