Freisa on the Chieri hills
The Chieri denomination offers a defined Piedmont expression of the grape.
Freisa is the principal grape of Freisa di Chieri. The vineyards occupy exclusively hilly ground, with calcareous clay-rich soils and trellises pruned by the Guyot system. The named wine territory extends around Chieri and into specified areas of Turin. It offers a local setting for exploring the grape through the hillside viticulture of this part of Piedmont.
