What grows here
Zoagli
6 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Perched on the Ligurian coast within the Metropolitan City of Genoa, Zoagli is a notable contributor to Italy's protected food and wine atlas. The dramatic coastal terrain and unique maritime microclimate provide the ideal conditions for specific viticulture. It is here that the esteemed Portofino DOC wine originates, within a zone shared by just 36 municipalities, capturing the distinct essence of this particular stretch of the Riviera. Zoagli, despite its modest size, is a crucial point for 6 protected denominations in total, also contributing to the broader Riviera Ligure DOP olive oil. This specific confluence of geography and tradition ensures that truly local flavors flourish.
