Informations about region

Piemonte, one of the largest wine regions of Italy situated in the northwest part of the country, with an area of 23 399 km². Its landforms consist of plains (24,4%), hills (30,3%), and mountainous areas (43,3%) – the mountain ranges of the Alps in the highest parts more than 4000 metres high, Monte Rosa and Gran Paradiso.

This unique position and two big rivers flowing through Piemonte – Pad and Tanaro provide excellent conditions for grape growing, and due to big temperature differences grapes accumulate aroma compounds.

The ancient Greeks reaching the Ligurian ports apart from the amphors full of wine, brought with them cuttings of grapes and began wine cultivation on the inland areas. After the fall of the Roman Empire and the invasions of barbarians wine cultivation developed all the time. Since the Middle Ages the city of Asti has been widely known for its good and fine wines. There was the first mention about Nebbiolo - the most famous grape of this region.

The most popular grape variety of Piedmont, has, of course, its legend which explains its name. The king of the Longobards, Grimoald, liberated the city of Asti in 665 from the Franks which were perceived as barbarian invaders. This was done successfully thanks to the strong local wine that was given to the Frank troops and made them drunk. Hence, from that moment on the wine that was drunk by barbarians has been called Barbera. To celebrate this victory Grimoald ordered that Barbera is an obligatory accompaniment on the royal table. Even several centuries after the events this wine still delights by its power and character, what is best proved by Altea. 80% of this wine is aged for more than 12 months in French oak large barrels of 700 litres called tonneaux, and 20% in barriques. Then, the batches of wine are blended and bottled. A stunning wine for people that can appreciate the charm of Piedmont‘s authentic wine.
