Alpage - Wild Boar Stew & Fumin at the Mountain's Edge
Traditional mountain cuisine reimagined. Wild boar stew with polenta paired with Fumin — a structured, age-worthy indigenous red making up just 7% of Valle d'Aosta production. Vegetable flan with Fontina fondue for vegetarians.
What to do there
3 things to do
Order the wild boar stew with polenta at Alpage. Pair with Fumin — a structured indigenous red making up just 7% of Valle d'Aosta production. The grape nearly went extinct in the 1960s; you're drinking a resurrection story.
Try the vegetable flan with Fontina fondue. First documented 1270. DOP rules require cows to graze above 1,800m. The cheese is altitude-specific terroir, same concept as wine.
Grab a terrace table at the mountain's edge. The Matterhorn dominates from the Italian side — known here as Monte Cervino. Wild landscape meets refined cuisine: quintessential Valle d'Aosta.
