EMILIA ROMAGNA

In Emilia, in the Piacenza area, the most widespread vines are the black grape, the Barbera and the Croatina which characterize the Gutturnio DOC and partly the Bonarda. As a variety of white grapes we find the aromatic Malvasia of Candia and the white Muscat, as well as the native Ortrugo grape. International vines such as Chardonnay, Pinot Bianco and Pinot Grigio, Riesling Italico and Müller-Thurgau are also common. The Parma area differs for the prevalence of white wines on red wines, but without differences in terms of cultivated vines. The areas of Reggio Emilia and Modena are instead dominated by the cultivation of Lambrusco, in the varieties Lambrusco Salamino, Lambrusco Maestri, Lambrusco Marani, Lambrusco Montericco and Ancellotta. Lambrusco di Sorbara and Lambrusco Grasparossa are more common in the Modena area. In the Bolognese area Montù and Pignoletto are widespread, both in white grapes with the Reno DOC and Colli Bolognesi Classico Pignoletto DOCG. In the Ferrara area we find the Fortana black grape variety and the DOC of which is the Bosco Eliceo DOC.
