What grows here
Villa Bartolomea
16 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
In the flat, fertile plains of Villa Bartolomea, a Veronese municipality of nearly 5,900 residents, the combination of alluvial soils and a temperate climate shapes a distinctive agricultural output. This specific terroir is ideal for cultivating Radicchio di Verona IGP, a prized chicory grown across a restricted zone of 55 municipalities. Alongside these crisp red leaves, local winemakers craft expressive pours under the Verona IGT denomination, which spans a zone of 98 municipalities. These local specialties showcase how the agricultural heritage of the lower Veneto region thrives in this particular pocket of Verona.
