This same precise environment also nourishes the vines responsible for three prominent wine denominations: Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo DOC, Trebbiano d'Abruzzo DOC, and Montepulciano d'Abruzzo DOC. In total, Ari's territory overlaps with 10 protected denominations, a testament to the distinct agricultural identity born from this particular Abruzzese landscape.
