Tornolo

Perched in the Parma Apennines, Tornolo occupies a unique position in Emilia-Romagna, with its fraction of Santa Maria del Taro just 35 kilometers from the Ligurian Sea. This distinct geographical convergence shapes a microclimate ideal for specific gastronomic excellences. It is here that the prized Fungo di Borgotaro IGP thrives, an acclaimed mushroom whose defined cultivation area spans only 8 municipalities. Beyond this hyper-local specialty, Tornolo’s territory is also pivotal for Salame Felino IGP and contributes to the revered Parmigiano Reggiano DOP. In total, 13 protected denominations overlap this corner of Italy, each bearing the mark of this particular land.
