What grows here
Rocca Grimalda
19 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Clinging to a steep rocky outcrop rising above the left bank of the Orba River, Rocca Grimalda’s rugged topography creates a highly specific viticultural arena. This elevation hosts 19 protected denominations, dominated by the local Dolcetto di Ovada Superiore DOCG. The steep, sun-exposed slopes yield robust, deeply colored red wines. Today, 2 verified producers craft these expressive wines within the municipality, with 1 open to the public, offering travelers an intimate taste of wines shaped by the sharp transition between Apennine breezes and Piedmontese plains.
