Consorzio tutela Barbera d'Asti e Vini del Monferrato
Holds the official member register — the source of every producer linked to its denominations on this atlas.
The MASAF-recognised Consorzio tutela Barbera d'Asti e Vini del Monferrato safeguards a rich heritage of viticulture, managing official registries for a network of 437 verified producers. This consortium actively protects denominations like Barbera d'Asti DOCG, Ruchè di Castagnole Monferrato DOCG, and Terre Alfieri DOCG—which each share this base of 437 producers—alongside Grignolino d'Asti DOC, Dolcetto d'Asti DOC, Cortese dell'Alto Monferrato DOC, Loazzolo DOC, and Monferrato DOC. By defending these denominations from imitation, the consortium ensures wine lovers experience only genuine, legally protected bottles.
