Sezzadio
18 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
On the right bank of the Bormida river, where the Stanavazzo stream cuts through the Alessandrian plain, Sezzadio's alluvial soils nurture 18 protected denominations. This water-rich terroir is ideal for specialized viticulture, placing the municipality within the exclusive 23-town production zone for the ruby-red Dolcetto d'Acqui DOC. The local climate also shapes the crisp, white Cortese dell'Alto Monferrato DOC, a wine shared with a larger zone of 86 municipalities. These flowing waterways and flatlands create a highly specific microclimate, defining Sezzadio as a crucial hub for Piedmont's most localized wine designations.
