ROMAGNA TERBBIANO

Trebbiano is a native vine already present in the Naturalis Historia of Pliny the Elder, that mentions it among the wines of Campania.
It probably appeared in Romagna with the Etruscans.
Over time from the ancient strain of Trebbiano was born a family of vines widely cultivated in Italy that founds in the plains of Romagna a very favorable habitat.
The Trebbiano of Romagna is also known as the Trebbiano della Fiamma because when grapes are mature take on a nice golden-yellow color with reddish highlights in the area more exposed to sun. It was awarded the DOC in 1973.
The result is a wine with pleasant freshness and fragrance rather savory and harmonious.
