Caldogno
15 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Situated in the Venetian plains just north of the provincial capital of Vicenza, Caldogno sustains a community of over 11,000 residents on land highly optimized for agriculture. This territory contributes to 15 protected denominations. Most notable is the highly localized Soprèssa Vicentina DOP, a spiced garlic-infused salami restricted to a zone of just 113 municipalities. The region's diverse soils also yield the prestigious Asiago DOP cheese, which is limited to a zone of 292 municipalities. Caldogno's microclimate and alluvial soils explain how such premium charcuterie and dairy thrive side by side.
