Starting from the early 19th century, and continuing into the present significantly more than a thousand artists from almost all European countries as well as American ones, visited Olevano to paint its landscapes and the town.

Artworks depicting Olevano and its surrounding area can be found in almost all major museums in Europe and America.

This red Italian wine can be produced in both a still, semi-sparkling frizzante and fully sparkling spumante style that can be both dry and slightly sweet.

The wine is made primarily (at least 90%) from the Cesanese Comune grape (also known as Cesanese di Affile) with Sangiovese, Barbera and the white wine grape varieties Trebbiano Toscano and Bombino bianco collectively allowed to make up to 10% of the blend.

The finished wine must attain a minimum alcohol level of 12% in order to be labelled with the Cesanese di Olevano Romano DOC designation.
