What grows here
Faggiano
14 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Faggiano, a distinct land within the province of Taranto in Puglia, offers more than just the charm suggested by its local inhabitants, known as faggianotti. Its particular soil composition and microclimate, shaped by the Ionian Sea influence and the local geological features of the Montedoro area, foster an exceptional viticultural environment. This unique setting is the birthplace for no less than 14 protected denominations. Foremost among these is the Lizzano DOC, a wine zone spanning only 3 municipalities, testament to the hyper-local conditions that nurture its specific grape varietals. This corner of Puglia truly embodies the taste of its sun-drenched, fertile ground.
