What grows here
Beura-Cardezza
17 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
High up where the rugged wilderness of the Val Grande National Park meets the steep alpine slopes of Verbano-Cusio-Ossola, Beura-Cardezza possesses a dramatic climate that shapes its agricultural output. This territory yields 17 protected denominations, headlined by highly localized mountain specialties. The rocky, terraced hillsides produce the rare Valli Ossolane DOC wine, a heritage crop limited to a zone of just 17 alpine municipalities. Simultaneously, the summer pastures feed the cows that produce Ossolano DOP, a firm cheese carrying the herbal complexity of Piedmont's northernmost valleys.
