What grows here

Capizzi

10 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.

Perched in the Messina area of Sicily, Capizzi's unique terroir fosters exceptional gastronomic treasures. This municipality contributes to the origin zone for 10 protected denominations, most notably the creamy Provola dei Nebrodi DOP cheese. Its distinct character is shaped by the climate and pastures of the Nebrodi Mountains, an area spanning 47 municipalities, where specific breeds and traditional methods yield this prized stretched-curd delicacy. Similarly, the local olive groves thrive, allowing Capizzi to also be part of the Valdemone DOP olive oil designation, a product celebrated for its robust flavor profile, born from an olive growing region covering 108 municipalities within this ancient land.
