What grows here
San Paolo Solbrito
19 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
San Paolo Solbrito, a quiet Piedmontese community of just over 1,100 residents in the Asti hills, nurtures a surprising intersection of land and water. The municipality's clay soils and historic farm ponds foster the Tinca Gobba Dorata del Pianalto di Poirino DOP, a golden-hued tench raised in localized shallow basins. This unique aquatic harvest thrives alongside 19 protected denominations, led by the slopes that yield the aromatic Freisa d'Asti DOC. Here, the transition from the Poirino clay plateau to wine country creates a rare micro-climate where prized freshwater fish and Piedmontese red wines are born side by side.
