Zona di produzione CoriOfficial Italian wording

Articolo 3 Zona di produzione delle uve Le uve devono essere prodotte nella zona di produzione appresso indicata che comprende in tutto il territorio amministrativo comunale di Cori ed in parte quello di Cisterna. Tale zona è così delimitata: partendo dal punto in cui il confine comunale di Cori attraversa la strada vicinale di Pezze di Ninfa, la linea di delimitazione percorre verso sud questa strada per circa 900 metri e imbocca lo stradone che porta al canale delle acque alte e prosegue per tutto il canale fino a incontrare, dopo aver attraversato il torrente Teppia, il ponte della strada del Castellone; di qui in direzione nord -ovest raggiunge il torrente Teppia all’ansa sita in prossimità della quota 48; risale tale torrente e alla confluenza con il fosso Morillo segue il corso di quest’ultimo fino a raggiungere la strada ferrata della linea Velletri -Terracina. Procede quindi lungo la ferrovia in direzione nord e all’intersezione con il confine di Cori , prendendo verso ovest, segue quest’ultimo fino a ritornare al punto in cui il confine del comune di Cori incrocia la strada vicinale di Pezze di Ninfa.
