A small hilltop village in Piedmont's wine country, Cisterna d'Asti is shaped by two landmarks that have defined it since medieval times: an 11th- or 12th-century castle — whose interior cistern gave the village its name — and the parish church. The surrounding terrain of wooded hills and vineyards sits within a wider region ringed by UNESCO World Heritage recognition, and the elevated position offers scenic views across the Asti countryside.
