Molise

This concentration peaks in the southern town of Venafro, which hosts 11 overlapping denominations, followed closely in the northern highlands by Agnone with 9. While the region officially holds 13 protected denominations in total, its wine sector includes 0 DOCG wines, with the Biferno DOC registering 0 verified producers. Instead, dairy defines the local output, particularly through the Mozzarella di Bufala Campana DOP, which covers a zone of 19 municipalities inside Molise.
