Aosta Valley

Heroic Viticulture on Europe's Highest Alpine Terraces

In the Aosta Valley, vines grow on steep terraces along the Dora Baltea, supported by dry stone walls, in what is known as heroic viticulture: Petit Rouge, Fumin, and Nebbiolo (here called Picotendro) grow at altitudes up to 1,200 meters, among the highest in Europe. The wineries, very small in size, offer an intimate and panoramic experience among the mountains. Book your tasting at the same price as the winery.
