What grows here
Masio
15 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Rising from the right bank of the Tanaro River in the Alessandria province, Masio channels its riverfront terroir into 15 protected denominations. The clay-rich soils of this Piedmontese outpost yield the robust Barbera del Monferrato DOC, a wine shared with 211 neighboring municipalities, alongside the structured Barbera del Monferrato Superiore DOCG, which spans a zone of 212. These steep hillsides temper the river's humidity, fostering ideal conditions for Monferrato DOC vines. In Masio, geography dictates flavor, crafting wines where the Tanaro's ancient path directly shapes the character of every vintage.
