Piedmont, a prestigious wine-producing region located in the northwest of Italy, is renowned for its exceptional wines and unique terroirs. Its rolling hills are home to vineyards cultivating iconic grape varieties such as Nebbiolo, which give rise to the famous Barolo and Barbaresco wines. Often referred to as the 'king and queen of Piedmont', these wines are celebrated for their complexity and ageing potential. In addition to Nebbiolo, Piedmont also shines with Barbera, one of the region's most widespread grape varieties, producing vibrant and approachable red wines.
White wines also take centre stage, with Arneis and Moscato d'Asti offering freshness and delicate aromas. Piedmont benefits from a continental climate moderated by Alpine influences, allowing for slow ripening and intense aromatic expression of the grapes. The region is divided into several sub-regions, each offering distinctive character and controlled designations of origin (DOC and DOCG).
For wine enthusiasts and cellar managers, Piedmont offers a palette of flavours deeply rooted in Italian wine tradition, with wines that can enrich and diversify any collection.
