Calabria, located in the far south of Italy, is a wine region rich in history and tradition. Known for its warm Mediterranean climate and mountainous landscapes, it offers ideal conditions for vine cultivation. The region boasts a long tradition of winemaking, a legacy left by the Greeks and Romans. Among the native grape varieties, Gaglioppo is the most emblematic, producing robust and full-bodied red wines, often compared to the great Barolo crus for their ageing potential. Greco Bianco, on the other hand, is a white grape variety that produces aromatic and balanced wines, perfect for pairing with local dishes. Calabria is also renowned for its dessert wines, particularly Muscats, which express the full richness and diversity of the Calabrian terroir. In recent years, the region has seen a revival in interest thanks to passionate producers who have strived to modernise winemaking techniques while respecting traditions. Discovering the wines of Calabria is to immerse oneself in a unique sensory experience mixing authenticity, culture, and gastronomy.
