This renowned region produces more prize-winning wines than any other region in Italy. Home to 46 DOC and four DOCG growing areas, Piedmont has consistently produced some of the most highly regarded varietal wines vintage after vintage.
 Certain varieties, such as Nebbiolo, Dolcetto, Barolo, Barbaresco, and Barbera are used to make strong red wines that pair flawlessly with the hearty, rich cuisine that is famous throughout the region. Another point of pride for Piedmont is their Moscato d'Asti; a scintillating sparkling wine made from the Moscato grape both fragrant and floral with a hint of well incorporated sweetness.
Most of the vineyards in this landlocked, mountainous region are family estates that take up relatively small amounts of land, giving the wines of Piedmont a certain hand-crafted element that has become a distinctive trademark of the region.
