What grows here
Cisterna di Latina
17 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
In the flat expanse of Lazio’s Latina province, the bustling agricultural hub of Cisterna di Latina, home to over 36,000 residents, yields an extraordinary bounty. Here, the volcanic soils of the nearby Alban Hills yield to fertile coastal plains, nurturing 17 in total protected food and wine designations. Most famously, Cisterna shares the highly localized Cori DOC wine territory with just one neighbor. This unique terroir also feeds the Aprilia DOC vineyards and the prized Kiwi Latina IGP. The interaction of coastal breezes and rich earth defines these distinct flavors.
