What grows here
Ceresole Alba
18 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Positioned as Cuneo's northernmost gateway where the sandy hills of the Roero region begin, Ceresole Alba offers a unique terroir hosting 18 protected denominations. This specialized landscape, defined by historical plateau ponds, is the birthplace of the Tinca Gobba Dorata del Pianalto di Poirino DOP, a distinctive golden tench cultivated across a limited zone of just 23 municipalities. This delicate freshwater specialty shares the local soils with the robust Fagiolo Cuneo IGP, illustrating how this specific geographic intersection shapes some of Piemonte's most localized and celebrated agricultural treasures.
