Radicchio di Verona
Food · PGI · 55 municipalities
While Veneto is home to several famous chicories, the Radicchio di Verona IGP is distinguished from its regional neighbors by an exceptionally concentrated cultivation base, operated by only 11 verified producers. This specialized agricultural zone spans 55 specific municipalities, a geographical territory that begins alphabetically with Agugliaro and Albaredo d'Adige. Officially recognized by the European Union since 2008, the protection and promotion of this specific crop fall under the dedicated Consorzio per la tutela e la valorizzazione del Radicchio di Verona IGP, ensuring this compact group of growers maintains a distinct market identity separate from other Venetian cultivars.
