What grows here
Pagno
20 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
In Cuneo province, the tiny Piedmontese municipality of Pagno—home to just 565 residents—nurtures a surprisingly dense agricultural heritage. Despite its small size, it boasts 20 protected denominations. Chief among these is the Colline Saluzzesi DOC, a highly localized wine denomination restricted to just 13 municipalities, where native grapes thrive on sunny, alpine slopes. Additionally, the crisp Mela Rossa Cuneo IGP apple benefits from Pagno’s unique temperature fluctuations within its 45-municipality cultivation zone. These precise climate conditions transform this quiet mountain outpost into a critical node for Piedmont’s most specialized flavors.
