Emilia-Romagna

Emilia-Romagna, Italy, is known for its Lambrusco wines and its rich viticultural heritage dating back to the 7th century BC, shaped by the Etruscans and Romans. The region’s diverse geography, from the Apennine foothills to the coastal plains, creates varied terroirs, influencing its wine production. For centuries, the grape varieties used here were of the Vitis labrusca species, as opposed to the Vitis vinifera commonly used throughout the world today.
