What grows here
Bovegno
16 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Tucked away in the mountainous alpine reaches of Brescia's province, the enclave of Bovegno—home to just over two thousand residents—provides the high-altitude pastures required for Nostrano Valtrompia DOP. This copper-cauldron cheese relies on the herb-rich wild forage of the Trompia Valley. While Bovegno hosts 16 protected denominations, including regional cheeses and Grappa lombarda IG, it is this gold-hued, saffron-seasoned specialty that defines the area. Currently, 1 verified producer in Bovegno keeps this demanding, ancient mountain dairy ritual alive amidst the peaks.
