Cevo

Home to just 765 residents in the mountainous reaches of Brescia, the alpine enclave of Cevo harbors 16 protected food and wine denominations. The rugged, high-altitude terrain of this Lombardy commune shapes the steep terraced vineyards where Valcamonica IGT wine is born, capturing the sharp temperature swings of the valley. This extreme alpine environment also fosters the pastures essential for the aged complexity of Provolone Valpadana DOP. In Cevo, mountain isolation has turned challenging rocky slopes into a specialized sanctuary for distinct, high-altitude viticulture and dairy craftsmanship.
