What grows here
Montebello di Bertona
10 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Montebello di Bertona's distinct identity as a food and wine heartland is deeply rooted in its geography, specifically its location within the Gran Sasso e Monti della Laga national park in Abruzzo's Pescara province. This rugged mountain terrain, coupled with its specific microclimates, provides the ideal conditions for remarkable produce. Here, the golden Aprutino Pescarese DOP olive oil gains its unique character, while robust Montepulciano d'Abruzzo DOC and crisp Trebbiano d'Abruzzo DOC wines express the rich local soil. In all, 10 protected denominations claim a stake in Montebello di Bertona, nurtured by four verified producers; one even opens its doors to visitors seeking a direct taste of this singular terroir.
