What grows here
Alviano
12 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Alviano, an Umbrian municipality in the Tiber Valley, derives its agricultural distinctiveness from a landscape profoundly altered in 1963. Here, the artificial Lake Alviano, formed by damming the Tiber, creates unique microclimates vital for viticulture. This specific environment gives rise to a remarkable portfolio of 12 protected denominations. Notably, this microclimate is ideal for the Narni IGT and Amelia DOC wines, whose distinct qualities are intrinsically linked to the soils and atmospheric influences shaped by this human-made basin. This fusion of historical intervention and natural setting defines what flourishes here.
