What grows here
Castelluccio Superiore
9 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Perched within Basilicata's Southern Lucanian Apennines, wholly embraced by the Pollino National Park, Castelluccio Superiore offers a unique environment for exceptional produce. Here, specific microclimates and fertile soils nurture the distinct Melanzana Rossa di Rotonda DOP and the prized Fagioli Bianchi di Rotonda DOP, both thriving in a restricted zone of just 4 municipalities. This ancient terrain also contributes to the renowned Canestrato di Moliterno IGP and Fagiolo di Sarconi IGP. In total, this corner of Basilicata claims 9 protected food and wine denominations, each a testament to its singular natural endowment.
