CULATELLO VERDI TOUR

Culatello is regarded as the greatest cured ‘cold cut’ on earth – can only be cured in November to January each year and aged with the mist of the Bassa and River Po.
The ancient curing and ageing caves are open to us in the most spectacular setting.

This is the home of great artistry and making.
