Maglione

This Piedmontese enclave of just four hundred residents in Turin's metropolitan outskirts nurtures 15 protected food and wine denominations within its ancient morainic hills. Maglione’s sunny microclimate and well-drained slopes are ideally suited for the vibrant Erbaluce di Caluso DOCG, a white wine cultivated across only 36 municipalities. This specific terroir also shapes the character of Canavese DOC, yielding expressive reds kissed by alpine winds. Here, the local farming community bridges glacial geology and historical viticulture, ensuring that despite its tiny population, Maglione makes a distinct contribution to Italy's agricultural heritage.
