What grows here

Chiomonte

16 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.

In the steep Alpine trench of the Susa Valley, Chiomonte's sheer slate-laden slopes shape a highly specialized microclimate. This rugged geography nurtures the rare Valsusa DOC wine, which is hand-harvested from heroic stone-walled terraces, alongside the sweet Marrone della Valle di Susa IGP chestnut found in the surrounding woodlands. Such extreme mountain environments host 16 protected denominations. Currently, 2 verified local producers preserve these demanding high-altitude specialties, with 1 estate open for visits to offer a direct taste of this dramatic, wind-swept Piedmontese corridor.
