The gelateria in its territory
This listing is part of the guide to artisanal gelaterie in Emilia-Romagna, which follows 542 counters across the region: the regional pages gather the addresses town by town, with maps and practical details.
Listing information comes from public sources — including OpenStreetMap — and from the guide’s archive: the editorial team verifies and enriches it over time, and when a piece of data is not confirmed it is left out rather than invented. No listing is paid for.
Artisanal gelato in Italy: the context for this listing
Italy counts tens of thousands of gelato shops, but the truly artisanal counters give themselves away in the details: a flavor list that changes with the weeks, believable colors, covered tubs that protect the product instead of showing it off.
The cone remains one of the country’s most democratic rituals: a good counter turns up in historic centres and provincial towns alike, and it is often off the tourist routes that the laboratories surprise the most.
Italian artisanal gelato is not a single product: it is a geography. Every region has brought its own ingredients to the counter — Bronte pistachio in Sicily, hazelnut in Piedmont, bergamot in Calabria, alpine milk in the north — and every city has its reference counters, often handed down through generations.
The guide gathers gelaterie region by region: from the regions page you can drill down to the city and to each individual listing.
How to use the guide starting from this listing
From here you can go back up to the gelaterie page and pick a region from the map: every regional page lists the counters town by town, with their listings linked. If you already have a name in mind, the homepage search is faster — it digs through thousands of listings by name, city and region.
The richest listings show address, map, hours and contact details; this is one of the leaner ones, and it will grow as public sources confirm new data. In the meantime the usual criteria for spotting a serious counter still apply: seasonality, natural colors, covered tubs.
What to taste at the counter
The first test of an artisanal counter is the classics: a clean fior di latte, a crema that tastes of real egg yolk and vanilla, a fruit sorbet that respects the season. In Emilia-Romagna the rule of the territory applies too: the guide’s symbol flavor is crema (egg custard), and asking the counter for its version is the quickest way to read the laboratory’s hand.
Seasons matter: citrus and rich creams in winter, stone fruit and sorbets in summer. A counter offering strawberry in December is telling a different story from that of artisanal gelato.

How can you tell whether a gelateria is genuinely artisanal?
Look for three things: seasonal flavors, believable colors and protected tubs. And listen for one: the people serving an artisanal counter can usually tell you where the pistachio, hazelnut and fruit come from. Vague answers say more than any sign.
Why do some listings carry more information than others?
Because the guide publishes only what the sources confirm: if hours, founding year or contact details cannot be verified, the listing leaves them out rather than inventing them. Listings grow richer at each update cycle, as data finds confirmation.
Is the information in this listing verified?
Yes, within the limits of the sources: the guide cross-checks public sources against its own archive and publishes only what it finds confirmed. Missing fields are a choice of honesty, and no listing is sponsored.
