Nus

The Dora Baltea defines the setting of Nus — its broad Alpine valley floor and sun-facing slopes concentrate homes, vineyards and roads between the mountains. Set in the central Aosta Valley, the commune reaches into the Saint-Barthélemy valley, an area noted for its clear night skies. Nus is associated with Valle d’Aosta Nus Malvoisie, a local white wine made from the Malvoisie grape. Above the main settlement, the medieval Castle of Nus recalls the defensive architecture that once watched over routes through the valley. The Regional Astronomical Observatory of the Aosta Valley at Lignan, within the municipality, adds a scientific dimension to this mountain setting.
