Recco
7 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Situated along the dramatic Ligurian coastline east of Genoa, the municipality of Recco is the proud birthplace of specialties uniquely tied to its specific terroir. Most notably, the town lends its name to the revered Focaccia di Recco col formaggio IGP, a testament to centuries of local culinary craft. This beloved cheese-filled focaccia is so distinct that its production zone is restricted to just 4 municipalities, making Recco its undisputed heart. Beyond this iconic food, Recco also lies within the production areas of 7 protected denominations, including the delicate Portofino DOC wines and the prized Riviera Ligure DOP olive oil, each reflecting the region's diverse agricultural heritage shaped by its coastal geography.
