Emilia-Romagna

About this region

The administrative region across northern Italy's Po plain, and the home of Lambrusco — not one grape but a family of related dark varieties split across DOCs such as Sorbara, Grasparossa di Castelvetro and Salamino di Santa Croce. The wines are frothy, savoury and built for the region's rich cooking. Sangiovese di Romagna and Albana cover the eastern half.
