What grows here
Venasca
18 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Where the Piedmontese plains rise to meet the gateway of the Varaita Valley, Venasca's unique alpine drafts shape a highly specialized agricultural microclimate. Here, the collision of mountain breezes and lowland warmth nurtures 18 protected denominations. Chief among these highly localized treasures is the Mela Rossa Cuneo IGP, a vibrant red apple cultivated across a restricted zone of 45 municipalities. The same terrain feeds the delicate Fagiolo Cuneo IGP, a regional bean limited to 247 territories, showcasing how this specific valley entrance defines the gastronomic identity of the Cuneo province.
