Montaldo Scarampi
19 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Overlooking the left bank of the Tiglione river within the historic Astesana territory, the south-facing hillsides of Montaldo Scarampi shape prime viticultural conditions. This specific topography nurtures 19 protected denominations. Local winemaking is led by the rare Grignolino d'Asti DOC, a red wine limited to a strict zone of 34 municipalities, alongside the robust Freisa d'Asti DOC. These steep slopes, historically documented for their sun exposure, coax intense acidity and tannins from indigenous grapes, making this Asti commune a critical production hub for some of Piemonte's most tightly defined wine appellations.
