Name for the hilly landscape to the north and south of the city of Alba (province of Cuneo) in the Piedmont region, which is also romantically referred to as the "heart of Piedmont". It lies between the upper Po Valley near Turin and the Ligurian Alps and stretches across the provinces of Cuneo and Asti. The area is bordered by the two rivers Tanaro and Bormida. The Langhe is divided into three areas: Bassa Langa (lower Langa) with mainly wine-growing, Alta Langa (upper Langa) with hazelnut cultivation and the Langa Astigiana area, famous for its truffle cultivation. The rolling hills rise up to 600 metres above sea level and consist mainly of clay and marl soils.

Serious sources on the internet are rare - and Wine lexicon from wein.plus is one such source. When researching for my articles, I regularly consult the wein.plus encyclopaedia. There I get reliable and detailed information.
