What grows here
Imperia
6 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Imperia, a Ligurian provincial capital, flourishes where steep coastal terrain meets the Mediterranean. This distinct geography shapes its unique agricultural identity, notably for Terrazze dell'Imperiese IGT, a wine born from vineyards clinging to these very slopes across its 66-municipality zone. The city is also pivotal for the renowned Riviera Ligure DOP olive oil and the specific Olive taggiasche liguri IGP. Out of 6 protected denominations overlapping here, these local treasures define the palate of this western Ligurian stretch. Currently, two verified producers within Imperia welcome visitors, showcasing the direct connection between this specific place and its celebrated flavours.
