What grows here
San Zeno di Montagna
16 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
San Zeno di Montagna, a mountain enclave of just 1,545 inhabitants in the province of Verona, leverages its high-altitude climate to yield highly specialized agricultural treasures. Chief among these is the Marrone di San Zeno DOP, a sweet chestnut cultivated exclusively within a restricted zone of 6 mountain municipalities. The dramatic elevation of this territory also shapes the local Verona IGT wines and Veneto Valpolicella DOP olive oils. In total, the commune hosts 16 protected denominations, proving that even a small Veronese community can sustain a complex array of alpine and lakeside flavors.
