Grumento Nova, a Basilicatan municipality in the province of Potenza, sits amidst the historical landscapes of the Alta Val d'Agri, an area once home to the ancient Roman city of Grumentum. This deep-rooted history, coupled with the unique fertile conditions of the valley, fosters exceptional regional produce. Among the 8 protected denominations found here, the celebrated Terre dell'Alta Val d'Agri DOC wine stands out, its production zone confined to just 3 municipalities. The local agricultural traditions also contribute to the distinctive Canestrato di Moliterno IGP cheese and the renowned Fagiolo di Sarconi IGP, reflecting the valley's inherent capacity for unique culinary treasures.
