What grows here
Castelli Calepio
16 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Castelli Calepio’s decentralized structure, spread across distinct hamlets in the Bergamo province, shapes a unique agricultural landscape where 16 protected denominations thrive. This scattered layout provides diverse microclimates ideal for viticulture, yielding the elegant Terre del Colleoni DOC, a wine shared with just 71 neighboring municipalities. Alongside these local vineyards, the humid plains support the aging of traditional cheeses like the herbaceous Salva Cremasco DOP. The fragmented geography of this Bergamasque territory acts as a natural mosaic, fostering specialized micro-terroirs that define the municipality’s high-quality wine and dairy output.
