What grows here
Barge
21 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Barge sits at the precise ecological transition where the flat Cuneo plains meet the steep slopes of the mountain union shared with Bagnolo Piemonte. This alpine-foothill geography creates a microclimate of cold nights and sunny days, perfect for ripening the crisp Mela Rossa Cuneo IGP. On the lower stony hillsides, growers cultivate the grapes for Pinerolese DOC, a wine restricted to a small zone of 34 municipalities. Out of 21 protected designations overlapping this territory, 4 certified producers operate within Barge, with 1 opening its doors to travelers.
