Asti

Asti is famous for its sparkling wines, particularly Asti Spumante, its well-preserved medieval architecture, and the Palio di Asti, a historic horse race.

Must-see attractions include the Torre Rossa, Piazza Alfieri, the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta, and the numerous historical palazzi and churches scattered throughout the city center.

Asti offers authentic Piedmontese cuisine, including dishes like agnolotti, bagna cauda, and a variety of local cheeses and cured meats. Of course, the region's wines are a highlight, with numerous enoteche offering tastings and pairings.
