The Wine Routes

With the ever-growing popularity of wine tourism in Italy over the past twenty years, a wide network of "Strade del Vino" (wine routes) has been established as a way to better enhance and promote the most fascinating grape-growing regions across the country.

These routes, which comprise associations of local producers and operators, are specially signposted tourist trails that guide visitors through the top blends and main attractions of a specific wine destination. Combining great wines, spectacular landscapes, precious cultural heritage and excellent food, they offer the chance to explore Italy’s top viticulture districts well beyond their cellars’ doors.

Designing a trip around a wine route is a great way to upgrade the travel experience of wine lovers, who not only get to discover generations-old wineries and learn about their signature blends, but they are also exposed to the historical and cultural components of the area, thus living a real immersion in the territory.
