What grows here
Villar Focchiardo
16 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Villar Focchiardo, an alpine community of 1,947 residents within Turin's metropolitan territory, leverages its steep mountain geography to nurture 16 protected designations. The valley’s rocky slopes feed the vineyards of Valsusa DOC, a wine produced across a restricted zone of just 19 municipalities. On these same elevations, the sweet Marrone della Valle di Susa IGP chestnuts thrive in the damp mountain air. This rugged Piedmontese climate shapes intense local flavors, from high-altitude herbs used in Genepì del Piemonte IG to the robust Toma Piemontese DOP cheese.
