Barone Canavese
15 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Barone Canavese, a tiny Piedmontese enclave of just 524 residents in Turin’s metropolitan area, harnesses its morainic hills to yield exceptional wines. This micro-commune is one of only 36 municipalities authorized to cultivate the native grapes for the white Erbaluce di Caluso DOCG, alongside the red and white blends of the Canavese DOC. The town's agricultural legacy is safeguarded under 15 distinct denominations, balancing these hyper-local viticultural treasures with regional specialties. Here, the unique alpine airflow and ancient soils define the distinctive crispness of the local wines, giving enthusiasts a taste of authentic Piedmontese viticulture.
