Anguria Reggiana
Food · PGI · 20 municipalities
Recognised under EU PGI status since 2015, Anguria Reggiana represents a highly specialized agricultural niche in Emilia-Romagna. Unlike neighboring melon-growing territories, this denomination restricts its production to just 20 specific municipalities, including Bagnolo in Piano and Boretto. This tight geographical boundary is farmed by a select group of only 14 verified producers under the supervision of the Consorzio di Tutela dell'Anguria Reggiana IGP. This small cohort of certified growers ensures a level of micro-territorial monitoring that distinguishes these watermelons from standard regional cultivars, keeping the strict cultivation standards confined to this defined local zone.
