A tale of unique flavours, the inimitable result of a special geographical location, of the quality of the raw materials and of age-old production techniques. Among the many specialities, some have become famous and given the \u201cDOP-Protected Designation of Origin\u201d mark: Fontina, Vall\u00e9e d\u2019Aoste Lard d\u2019Arnad, Valle d\u2019Aosta Fromadzo and Jambon de Bosses.<\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-GB\">For the protection of consumers when buying and consuming the typical food and wine products of Valle d\u2019Aosta, the \u201c<\/span><span lang=\"en-GB\"><i>Saveurs du Val d\u2019Aoste<\/i><\/span><span lang=\"en-GB\">\u201d branding has been created to guarantee the quality and provenance of the products.
