What grows here
San Luca
12 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
San Luca, a municipality whose name honors the evangelist Saint Luke, is intrinsically tied to Calabria's distinct terroir. This land, shaped by unique microclimates and specific soil compositions in the Reggio Calabria province, fosters conditions ideal for specialized agriculture. Here thrives the rare Bergamotto di Reggio Calabria - Olio essenziale DOP, a product born from the particular interaction of sunshine and Ionian sea air. Beyond this unique citrus essence, San Luca contributes to a total of 12 protected food and wine denominations, each a testament to the intense, authentic flavors cultivated by this remarkable landscape and its enduring agricultural heritage.
