Fagiolo Cuneo
Food · PGI · 247 municipalities
Recognized as a protected geographical indication in 2009, the Fagiolo Cuneo IGP presents a unique paradox within the agricultural landscape of Piedmont. Its official cultivation zone spans 247 specific municipalities, ranging alphabetically from Acceglio and Aisone to Alba. Despite this vast potential geographic footprint, official registers currently record zero verified producers actively cultivating under the designation. This gap between theoretical territory and active production distinguishes the bean from neighboring Piedmontese origin-protected legumes. While the legal designation remains fully intact, the Fagiolo Cuneo currently exists as a dormant culinary appellation awaiting active commercial revival.
