Levice

In the quiet hills of Piedmont’s Cuneo province, the tiny hamlet of Levice—home to just 172 residents—provides a pristine sanctuary for agricultural craft. This compact territory boasts 21 protected denominations, represented by 1 verified producer based within its borders. The steep, grassy pastures here yield the rich sheep’s milk essential for Murazzano DOP, a historic cheese restricted to a tight zone of 50 municipalities. Simultaneously, the calcareous soils support the high-elevation vineyards of Alta Langa DOCG, transforming this sparsely populated hillside into a vital node of authentic, high-altitude Italian gastronomy.
