The Lizzano DOC zone is located in the coastal area south of Taranto, by the Ionian Sea, including the municipalities Lizzano, Faggiano and parts of Taranto.
Finding the first Lizzano wines that were first classified as DOC in 1988 can be quite challenging, but in all fairness it should be mentioned that those wines are not significantly different from those of the Salento plain.
The common denominator for wines in Lizzano DOC is that both categories are powerful and full-bodied.
