What grows here
Castel d'Azzano
16 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Just south of the city of Verona, the low alluvial plains of Castel d'Azzano channel fertile soils into a powerhouse of northern Italian fruit cultivation. This flat Veronese landscape provides the ideal sandy loam and irrigation required for the Pesca di Verona IGP, a late-summer peach cultivated across a highly restricted zone of just 18 neighboring municipalities. These specialized fields contribute to the 16 protected denominations overlapping this territory, where tempered breezes off the Adige basin also nourish the historic vines designated under the local Verona IGT.
