Langhe
Langhe is a hilly area to the south and east of the Tanaro river, in the province of Cuneo, in Italy's Piedmont region. For Italian wine lovers, Piedmont is the sacred land of winegrowers. Here, and particularly in the Langhe, gastronomy and wine are as inseparable as in Burgundy.

Langhe wines are characterized by their power, richness, personality and maturity. Piedmont (at the foot of the mountains) is 95% planted on hillsides at the foot of the Alps, close to France and the city of Turin. Each Langhe vineyard enjoys its own microclimate. The region's macroclimate is characterized by high temperatures during the growing season, autumn mists and harsh winters, often with thick fog.

TheLanghe appellation (generic name for the region) is vinified south of Alba, from nebbiolo, dolcetto, freisa and arneis grapes on heavy, clay-rich marl soils. These qualities are fully reflected in the wines offered by Domaine Elio Altara and Poderi Aldo Conterno.
