A cluster-shaped territory, which extends between the splendid hills of Monferrato and Langhe, among the enchanting wine-growing landscapes that in 2014 obtained the prestigious Unesco recognition.

​

The Asti area, famous throughout the world for its wines, deserves to be known also for its history, for the art and traditions that return punctually in the great events of September or in all the events that animate the many small, but very lively , municipalities of the territory.

​

Astesana and Astigiano are not synonyms, but refer to two complementary but specific territorial concepts. The first is a territory that is part of the Asti area, which in turn includes Astesana, Basso and Alto Monferrato Asti and Langa Astigiana.  

Asti in the world means Spumante but the range of DOC and DOCG Asti wines includes all types of wines: white, red, sweet, dry, lively and sparkling, capable of accompanying the most varied menus for the most refined palates. Great reds such as Barbera, or small and precious typical products of a single municipality such as Loazzolo passito or Gamba di Pernice di Calosso. In all cases they are family-type productions, following tradition and pursuing quality over quantity. Quality that you can touch with your hand (or rather with taste and smell) in the many wineries, both in the historic cellars and in the more recently built ones, in the vineyards (partly UNESCO heritage) that cover our hills, so difficult to be taken care of for the slopes and the narrow rows where access by mechanized vehicles is almost impossible.

On foot, by mountain bike, on horseback or accompanied by sweet donkeys (donkey trekking), these are the best ways to immerse yourself in the landscape and history of the Asti area. There are many marked trails suitable for all needs, from families with children to those who love long treks lasting several days.

Extreme point of the province of Asti almost on the border with Liguria, the Asti Langa is a territory of great charm in many respects: the altitude of its hills where the vineyards gradually give way to hazelnut groves, pastures and woods, the climate which is already affected by the proximity of the sea and allows you to see rare gorse and orchids bloom, its small medieval villages, the ancient watchtowers built, according to tradition, to counter the invasions of the Saracens.
