Presicce-Acquarica
12 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Presicce-Acquarica, located in the Lecce province of Puglia, thrives as a cradle for distinct Italian flavors. Its specific Salento soil and climate, shaped by its proximity to the Ionian Sea, contribute uniquely to 12 protected denominations. Foremost among these is the Patata novella di Galatina DOP, a prized new potato whose cultivation zone spans just 18 municipalities, highlighting the exacting conditions found here. The region also yields the acclaimed Terra d'Otranto DOP olive oil and contributes to several wines, including the robust Negroamaro di Terra d'Otranto DOC. This land's singular character ensures products of unparalleled local authenticity.
