History

The history of Cinque Terre DOC dates back to ancient times. The vineyards that produce this wine are situated in the Cinque Terre National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site. The cultivation of grapes in this region can be traced back to Roman times. Over the centuries, the production process has been perfected, but the traditional methods of cultivation on terraces have been preserved.

Geographical Production Area

Cinque Terre DOC is produced in the Liguria region of Italy, specifically in the Cinque Terre area. This region is distinguished by its steep terraces overlooking the sea, which contributes to the unique characteristics of the wine. The climate of the area is typically Mediterranean, with mild winters and warm, dry summers. The soil in this region is primarily slate, which facilitates the drainage of water and reflects sunlight to the vines, thus providing a unique and optimal environment for grape cultivation.
