What grows here
Coassolo Torinese
15 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Rising into the rugged alpine landscape of the Lanzo Valleys northwest of Turin, Coassolo Torinese offers a dramatic terroir where mountain geography shapes distinct flavors. The municipality intersects 15 protected denominations. Here, the steep, high-altitude slopes foster the aromatic mountain herbs essential for Genepì del Piemonte IG spirits, while the transition to lower, sun-facing hillsides allows for the cultivation of vines under the Canavese DOC. This sharp altitudinal gradient also provides the alpine grazing lands that define Toma Piemontese DOP, making this valley enclave a crucial micro-terroir for Piedmont's mountain-reared delicacies.
