The wine regionsFrom hills to wineries, one place at a time

Wine begins in the landscape

Before the glass, a hillside to discover

A village on a ridge, rows of vines tracing a hillside, a farmhouse along a country lane. This is where a journey into wine begins: in the places that give it life. Exploring the area helps you recognise the names on the bottles and understand the stories of the people who grow the vines, with the landscape already familiar to you.

In the Casalese, local stone and the infernot link wine storage to village homes. In the Astigiano, the lands of Ruchè, Barbera and Moscato reveal different villages and traditions. The Acquese, the Ovadese and the lands of Gavi lead towards the valleys and the Apennines. These stories trace landscapes and connections between places: some areas meet and overlap, just as they do in everyday life among the hills.

Start with a region, explore its villages and follow its trails or multi-stage routes. From there, discover the grape varieties, the wines and the people who make them. Each stop brings something new to learn and another reason to linger.
