DOP (Denominazione d'Origine Protetta)
DOP, or Denominazione d'Origine Protetta, is an Italian certification that guarantees the quality and origin of certain food products. It ensures that items like cheese, wine, or olive oil are made in specific regions using traditional methods. The label protects both the product's authenticity and the cultural heritage of its area. For consumers, it means they can trust that what they are buying is genuine and produced according to strict standards, reflecting the characteristics and traditions of its place of origin.
