Piedmont

**Piedmont** (Piemonte) sits in the northwest of Italy, tucked against the Alps, and is prized for some of the country's most serious and long-lived red wines. **Wines & grapes** — The noble Nebbiolo grape makes the powerful, perfumed reds of Barolo and Barbaresco. Everyday drinking comes from Barbera and Dolcetto, while Moscato d'Asti and sparkling Asti offer sweet, low-alcohol whites. **Character** — A continental climate with autumn fog (nebbia, which lends Nebbiolo its name) yields wines high in tannin and acidity, with signature aromas of rose, tar, cherry, and dried herbs that unfold with age. **Good to know** — Barolo and Barbaresco are often called the "king and queen" of Italian wine.
