Binasco

Binasco, a municipality of 7,043 residents in Lombardy's Metropolitan City of Milan, exemplifies the rich dairy heritage of the Po Valley. Its specific microclimate and traditional agricultural practices are instrumental to the character of products like Salva Cremasco DOP, a seasoned cheese, and the softer, aged Quartirolo Lombardo DOP. The proximity to vital trade routes historically fostered the distinct aging processes crucial for these and Taleggio DOP. This strategic location and fertile land contribute to Binasco being part of the production zone for no fewer than 14 protected denominations, making it a pivotal point for Lombardian gastronomic identity.
