Italian Regions: Piemonte

Located in northwest Italy, Piemonte borders both France and Switzerland. It is the second largest region in Italy, after Sicily. Piemonte gets its name from its location at the foot of the Alps — pie meaning foot, and monte meaning mountain. From famous wines to white truffles, there's plenty to love about this unique region. We especially love Piemonte since we were founded in the capital city — Turin!
