Romagna DOC is located in Emilia-Romagna in north-east Italy. See Romagna Sangiovese DOC.

Terroir: Prof. Attilio Scienza told me that ‘Romagna is a hill-only area, towards Forlì, towards Imola, a very recent area of ​​land geologically. The geology is mainly from the Pliocene era (between four to five million years ago during the Tertiary era), and partly from the Pleistocene (between one and two million years ago during the Quaternary era). The soils are marine soils (unlike Flysch soils which are derived from rocks). There is a lot of clay, even a recent clay, that of the Pleistocene, The clones of Sangiovese in Romagna are small berried, a good choice because there is more water available here [the clay holding water], and where the ratio of skins to pulp is very favourable.’ In terms of food and wine pairings Prof. Scienza said the style of wine, being ‘simple and easy is also best suited to the fatty, local cuisine based on pork.
