What grows here
Rocca d'Arazzo
19 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
In the Asti province, the quiet slopes of Rocca d'Arazzo support a tiny community of just 935 residents who guard 19 protected denominations. This steep terrain yields the high-tannin, pale-red Grignolino d'Asti DOC, a rare wine cultivated within a highly restricted zone of 34 municipalities. The local clay and limestone soils also nurture the vibrant Freisa d'Asti DOC, another native specialty that thrives on these specific exposures. These demanding Asti hillsides dictate the character of each bottle, proving that small-scale viticulture in this compact enclave shapes some of Piedmont's most distinctive, food-friendly wines.
