What grows here
Carrè
17 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Carrè thrives where the Venetian Prealps meet the fertile Vicenza foothills, right at the base of the Asiago plateau. This specific topographic position, with alpine drafts and temperate lowland breezes, fosters a distinct microclimate for agriculture. Consequently, this small territory shares in 17 protected denominations. It champions the local Vicenza DOC, which yields expressive wines across an 81-municipality zone, alongside the Soprèssa Vicentina DOP, an aged garlic-scented salami restricted to 113 municipalities. These specialties reflect the agricultural transition from high mountain pastures to sun-drenched, vine-clad hills.
