Food · PGI · 6 municipalities

This production zone comprises Acquapendente, Gradoli, Grotte di Castro, Latera, Onano, and San Lorenzo Nuovo. What distinguishes this denomination from neighboring Italian pulse origins is its current transitional state: despite having its geographical boundaries legally established, the denomination officially records zero verified producers. This unique situation highlights a protected origin defined on paper, awaiting active commercial certification from local agriculturalists operating within these six designated municipal territories.
