Civitavecchia

Civitavecchia, a vital port on the Tyrrhenian Sea and a gateway to the Metropolitan City of Rome Capital, anchors a territory where protected origins flourish. Here, unique volcanic soils and coastal breezes foster specific agricultural expressions. This municipality contributes to no less than 14 distinct denominations. Among these, the limited Cerveteri DOC wine, covering just 8 municipalities, finds its roots, as does the succulent Carciofo Romanesco del Lazio IGP, an artichoke prized from a zone of 17 communes. The local terroir also helps shape the character of Tarquinia DOC wines and the broader Roma DOC. From its strategic position, Civitavecchia thus champions a distinctive array of Lazio's finest produce.
