Castelfranco di Sotto
13 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Castelfranco di Sotto, positioned within Tuscany's Lower Arno Valley in the province of Pisa, offers specific environmental conditions fostering distinct agricultural produce. This particular geographic setting contributes to the unique character of several Protected Designations of Origin and Geographical Indications. Among the 13 denominations overlapping here, one finds the renowned Pane Toscano DOP, an unsalted bread deeply rooted in local tradition across a zone of 273 municipalities. The dry, almond-studded Cantuccini Toscani IGP biscuits also emerge from this same extensive area, alongside other regional specialities like Finocchiona IGP and Prosciutto Toscano DOP, each reflecting the specific heritage of this part of Tuscany.
