Rosta
12 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Rosta, a key municipality within Piedmont's lower Susa Valley and positioned just 20 kilometers west of Turin, is where a distinct convergence of geography and heritage shapes exceptional products. This specific setting, at the threshold of the Alps, provides the precise environmental conditions for a total of 12 protected origins to flourish. Among these are the highly localised Toma Piemontese DOP, nurtured across a zone encompassing 886 municipalities, alongside the acclaimed Vitelloni Piemontesi della Coscia IGP and Salame Piemonte IGP. The historical agricultural vocation of this valley, coupled with its unique microclimate, imbues these regional excellences with their irreplaceable character, making Rosta integral to Italy’s gastronomic identity.
