There's no question about it, the best way to truly experience Italy is to go where the tourists are not. While small villages in Tuscany and the like are being flooded with new adventurers looking for authentic life, it's lesser-known cities like the Northern Piedmont's Asti that are the real diamonds in today's rough. An affluent and older community, Asti clings strongly to the sense of tradition and community that represented the Italy of the early 20th century. Best known for its bubbly and sweet Asti Spumante wine, it is also home to an antique Palio horserace, as well as a respectable number of churches and cathedrals. Add to that great.

Set in its vineyards Conca D'Oro is a family-run business, the result of an ancient inspiration that is the passion for wine.The new winery perfectly located in the beautiful hills in the heart of the Prosecco area, is in fact the outcome of a century old tradition combined with innovative and original solutions that offer today a great potential for the future.
