What grows here
Manta
20 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
In the Cuneo province of Piedmont, the small municipality of Manta—home to just 3,870 residents—carves out a specialized agricultural niche at the foot of the hills. This compact territory hosts 20 protected denominations, championed by the highly localized Colline Saluzzesi DOC, a wine designation spanning only 13 municipalities. The area's breezy slopes also yield the crisp Mela Rossa Cuneo IGP, a red apple grown across a select zone of 45 municipalities. Here, alpine currents meet fertile foothills, shaping a distinct microclimate that concentrates sugars in the orchards and character in the vineyards.
