What grows here
Roletto
15 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Within the metropolitan shadow of Turin, the compact Piedmontese commune of Roletto—home to fewer than two thousand residents—is a vital link in regional gastronomy. This small foothill enclave nurtures 15 protected denominations. Most crucial is the Pinerolese DOC, a wine shared across a select zone of just 34 municipalities, where local vineyards yield distinctive Alpine-influenced bottles. Complementing these viticultural offerings, Roletto also participates in the restricted production area of Crudo di Cuneo DOP, a delicate cured ham crafted across 418 municipalities. Here, hillside viticulture and lowland pastoral heritage seamlessly converge into highly localized, authentic flavors.
