What grows here
Bairo
15 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Situated nearly forty kilometers north of Turin, the quiet Piedmontese enclave of Bairo—home to fewer than eight hundred residents—offers a specialized terroir for northern Italian viticulture. Here, morainic soils nurture the native Erbaluce grape, making the commune a vital contributor to the exclusive 36-municipality production zone of the crisp Erbaluce di Caluso DOCG. The village also shapes the red and white blends of the Canavese DOC, spanning 104 municipalities. In total, Bairo hosts 15 overlapping protected designations, proving that a small alpine footprint can yield immense culinary diversity.
