What grows here
Genivolta
15 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Genivolta, a quiet community of 1,084 inhabitants in the fertile Cremona province of Lombardy, is a vital sanctuary for Northern Italy’s dairy heritage. Nurtured by the surrounding lowland pastures, this small municipality shapes 15 distinct protected denominations. Among these local treasures, the stringy, aged Provolone Valpadana DOP and the historic, cuboid Salva Cremasco DOP find their ideal home here. The area's damp plains and ancestral dairy craft also foster the aging of Quartirolo Lombardo DOP. In Genivolta, the combination of abundant local milk and time-honored farmhouse techniques translates into some of Italy's most celebrated cheeses.
