San Michele CN, Italia, 12070, Castelletto Uzzone

The area sits in the Langhe transition zone toward the Ligurian Apennines, with wooded ridges, small valleys and mixed vineyards, hazelnut groves and pasture. The Bormida valley system is the main river landscape in this part of southern Piedmont. Cortemilia is the nearest small town of note, with everyday services and a historic centre; Alba is the nearest larger town with a full range of services, rail connections and the main market town role for the Langhe. This part of the Alta Langa is known for hazelnuts, small-scale wine production and hill villages.
