A broad wine family among the hills

The Langhe name gathers different grapes and wine styles under a territorial denomination.

Langhe is a territorial denomination with a broad grape base. Its wines include reds and whites as well as named varieties such as Nebbiolo, Dolcetto, Arneis and Favorita. Marl, limestone, sand and clay occur in different combinations across the hills. Created in 1994, the DOC brought these varied geological and climatic settings together under one name.

A defined territory in Cuneo province

The denomination’s grape zones are listed by wine type across municipalities in Cuneo province. Some named types have more specific geographical limits within the broader area.
