Bordano
13 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Bordano, a distinctive village in Italy's Friuli-Venezia Giulia region, earned its moniker "village of butterflies" from the abundant presence of diverse species, especially noticeable in late spring. This unique biodiversity hints at a microclimate fostering not only delicate insects but also exceptional agricultural products. From this specific terroir come celebrated protected origins, among them the tangy Brovada DOP, a turnip-based preserve deeply rooted in local culinary heritage. Furthermore, the area contributes to a total of 13 official denominations, including the robust Grappa friulana IG and the renowned Montasio DOP cheese, reflecting a bounty shaped by its precise geographic and ecological conditions.
