What grows here
Prossedi
12 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Prossedi, a small municipality within Lazio's Latina province, serves as a crucial origin point for 12 protected denominations. Its position amidst the rolling Pontine hills provides the specific environmental conditions necessary for olive cultivation. This landscape yields the highly localised Colline Pontine DOP olive oil, sourced from a zone of just 25 municipalities. The particular microclimate here also contributes to the distinct character of the esteemed Oliva di Gaeta DOP. These products emerge from Prossedi not by chance, but through the harmonious interplay of its distinctive terrain and the centuries-old agricultural expertise cultivated within its boundaries.
