About the Piedmont
Piedmont (Piemonte) enjoys an unrivalled seat among the world's very finest wine regions. Located in northwest Italy it is the home of more DOCG wines than any other Italian region.
With more DOCGs and DOCs than any other Italian region, and about 40 percent of its wine produced at DOC/G level, Piedmont is challenged only by Veneto and Tuscany for the top spot among Italian wine regions – though the rapid progress made by other Italian wine regions means all three must avoid complacency.
