WINE REGION
Calabria: Bold Wines from the Toe of Italy
One of Italy’s smallest wine regions, Calabria produces around 400,000 hectoliters of wine per year. Though production is lower, the region is home to some of Italy’s most distinctive wines.
The star grape is Gaglioppo, producing bold, spicy reds like Cirò. Greco Bianco shines in aromatic, full-bodied whites.
Sun-drenched vineyards, rugged mountains, and coastal breezes define Calabria’s terroir. The dry, rocky soil forces vines to work hard, leading to intensely flavored wines.
