What grows here
Volpara
20 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Carved by the waters of the Versa stream in the upper hills of Pavia, the tiny enclave of Volpara channels its steep terrain into 20 protected designations. This distinctive viticultural microclimate allows it to stand as one of just 41 municipalities authorized to produce Oltrepò Pavese metodo classico DOCG. The steep, sun-drenched slopes offer the sharp temperature shifts required for this sparkling wine, alongside the robust Bonarda dell'Oltrepò Pavese DOC. Here, alpine winds meeting the valley corridor create a highly specialized environment where grapevines find their ideal geological home.
