What grows here
Alice Castello
15 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Situated on the western edge of Piedmont's Vercelli province, Alice Castello thrives where flat river plains rise into morainic hills. This transitional terrain shapes the character of the 15 protected denominations overlapping its borders. Most defining is the Canavese DOC, a wine zone spanning 104 municipalities, where vineyards yield vibrant, alpine-influenced bottles. These same soils and temperate breezes fuel the production of Toma Piemontese DOP, a historic cheese. Alice Castello’s unique geographic position ensures its clay soils and alpine air nurture both distinctive viticulture and savory cheesemaking.
