The fertile soil is fertile spans nearly the entire width of peninsula in Northern Italy. The wine region of Emilia-Romagna is situated between Marche and Tuscany to the south, and Veneto, Lombardy and Piedmont to the north.
The history of the viticulture goes back to the seventh century BC, which makes it one of the oldest wine regions in Italy. Introduced by the Etruscans and adopted by the Romans the Vitis labrusca were used for centuries, with Vitis vinifera being the most predominately grown grape today. Emilia-Romagna is famous for Lambrusco.

The western part of the region consists of Apennine peaks and hills that make their way to the lower-lying plains just east of Modena, Parma, and Bologna. Beyond that lay the coastal plains of the Ferrara province, with a notable portion of land hitting just below sea level. Flowing east to west, the Po River marks the northern part of the rebion bordering the Adriatic Sea.
The wine production of Emilia-Romagna's wine production is divided almost identically between whites and reds, with the dominant vine varieties being Lambrusco, Barbera, Malvasia, Bonardo and Sangiovese.

Review:
Tremendous energy is conveyed through a guiding light of spiced cher- rywood and notes of tea leaves and flint. Rich and concentrated, with a hint of smoked cedar on the finish. The grapes come from neighboring estate vineyards in the Santa Rosa Plains region of the Russian River Valley.
