What grows here
Govone
25 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Home to just over 2,200 residents in Piedmont's northernmost tip of Cuneo province, Govone bridges the distinct terroir of Roero and Asti. This unique geography nurtures 25 protected denominations, led by the highly localized Terre Alfieri DOCG, a wine shared with only ten other municipalities, and the Cisterna d'Asti DOC. The local sandy clays yield structured, elegant expressions of Nebbiolo and Arneis. Four verified producers craft these native wines within the municipality's borders, with two opening their cellars to travelers seeking to taste where these specific DOCG boundaries overlap.
