Sabina D.O.C. wines, in the Sabine Hills, near Rome
One way to choose a good wine here in Italy, if you know nothing about the grape nor the winery is to look for the D.O.C. label. The Italian Government has ruled that the wines offered in our area, just north of Rome in the Sabine Hills: the Sabina 'D.O.C.' (Controlled designation of origin) wine, should be a blend of Sangiovese and Montepulciano grapes for red wine and Malvasia and Trebbiano for white. There are many other ways to find a good wine, but this is a great way to start.
Visiting the Sabine Hills wineries makes a great Rome Day Trip and an opportunity to witness how wine is made naturally on a small scale, in a beautiful environment. Convivio Rome offers a Half Day Rome Wine Tour. For more information please contact us
