What grows here
Lucera
15 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Rising above the expansive plains of Foggia in northern Puglia, the historic settlement of Lucera anchors a unique agricultural landscape. This specialized terroir nurtures 15 protected denominations, headlined by the highly localized Cacc'e mmitte di Lucera DOC, a robust red wine produced across just three neighboring municipalities. The area's limestone soils and hot Mediterranean climate also support larger geographic designations like the Tavoliere delle Puglie DOC. Today, 2 verified producers operating directly within Lucera's borders safeguard these ancient vinicultural legacies, turning northern Puglian sunlight into distinctively bold, dark-skinned grape expressions.
