Tinca Gobba Dorata del Pianalto di Poirino
Food · PDO · 23 municipalities
Since its official recognition in 2007, the Tinca Gobba Dorata del Pianalto di Poirino DOP from Piemonte has occupied a highly unusual position among Italy’s protected foods. While its defined geographic origin zone spans 23 distinct municipalities—including Baldissero d'Alba, Buttigliera d'Asti, and Ceresole Alba—the denomination currently records exactly 0 verified producers. This total absence of certified operators distinguishes this golden-humped tench from active northern Italian aquaculture appellations, leaving the PDO as a legally protected but practically dormant designation. It remains a unique, quiet testament to a localized micro-region without any active commercial certification today.
