'''Emilia-Romagna''' (/eˈmiːljə roʊˈmɑːnjə/) is a major wine-producing region of northern [[Italy]], extending from the [[Po Valley]] to the Adriatic coast. Known for its diverse geography and dual cultural identity, the region encompasses both Emilia, famed for sparkling [[Lambrusco]], and Romagna, noted for [[Sangiovese]] and [[Albana]] wines.<ref>Johnson & Robinson, ''The World Atlas of Wine'', 8th ed., Mitchell Beazley, 2019.</ref>

This geographical and cultural duality has shaped distinct wine traditions within the region.<ref>Robinson (ed.), ''The Oxford Companion to Wine'', Oxford University Press, 2015.</ref>

== Characteristics ==
The vineyards of Emilia-Romagna range from low-lying plains to hilly [[slopes]], offering varied [[soils]] from fertile alluvial deposits to limestone-rich outcrops in Romagna.<ref>Scienza, ''Atlante dei vini d’Italia: Emilia-Romagna'', Touring Editore, 2011.</ref> The climate combines continental and maritime influences, with hot summers moderated by Adriatic breezes.

Emilia is primarily associated with Lambrusco, a family of indigenous varieties producing light, sparkling reds in a dry to off-dry style. Romagna, by contrast, is characterised by Sangiovese, yielding structured reds, and Albana, historically significant as the first white grape in Italy to receive [[DOCG]] recognition.<ref>Consorzio Vini di Romagna, consorziovinidiromagna.it.</ref>
