This distinct terroir, combined with centuries-old local traditions, underpins a total of 9 protected origins found here. Among them are the revered Aglianico del Vulture Superiore DOCG and the flavourful Lenticchia di Altamura IGP, embodying the profound connection between this land and its exceptional produce.
