- Prized for its bright red color and intense taste and aroma, San Marzano tomatoes are grown in the area of Agro Sarnese-Nocerino (which includes the town of San Marzano sul Sarno) in the region of Campania. The concentrated flavor comes from the rich volcanic soil and scant summer rainfall that help them ripen gradually.
