What grows here
Grumello Cremonese ed Uniti
15 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
The grand Baroque facade of Villa Affaitati rises above the fertile Po Valley lowlands of Grumello Cremonese ed Uniti, anchoring a historic agricultural landscape. Here, the local damp plains provide lush grazing for dairy cows, yielding the distinctively aged Provolone Valpadana DOP, a food specialty bound to a zone of 726 municipalities. This cheese coexists with 14 other prestigious labels under the area’s 15 total protected denominations. This dairy-centric commune also excels in producing Salva Cremasco DOP, a square, firm cheese that preserves the traditional curing methods of the Cremona province.
