Castelbottaccio

Perched at 617 meters above sea level, Castelbottaccio is a compact Molise community on the hills overlooking the left bank of the Biferno river. This elevation and the valley's influence forge a unique terroir, highly conducive to viticulture. Here, discerning palates discover the robust Biferno DOC, a wine originating from a zone of 42 municipalities, and the increasingly celebrated Tintilia del Molise DOC. The same fortunate microclimate also nurtures olives for the fragrant Molise DOP olive oil. In total, Castelbottaccio contributes to the rich tapestry of 8 protected denominations, each a testament to its specific geographic advantages.
