What grows here
Francavilla Angitola
13 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Nestled in Calabria's hilly hinterland, Francavilla Angitola gazes over the Angitola valley and its artificial lake, a geographical position that profoundly shapes its agricultural identity. This distinct terrain and microclimate cultivate the conditions for 13 protected denominations. Crucially, it is one of just 9 municipalities where the acclaimed Lamezia DOC wine draws its unique character from the sun-drenched slopes. Similarly, the robust Lametia DOP olive oil flourishes on these very lands, reflecting the deep connection between the Calabrian soil and its venerable produce. Beyond these, the locality also contributes to renowned regional specialties such as Soppressata di Calabria DOP.
