Visit to Enoteca Regionale Dozza
Posted by admin | Filed under From Kunal's Desk
Enoteca Regionale Emilia Romagna is an association that has been in place since 1970 to promote and improve the regional wine production.
This purpose was officially acknowledged in 1978 by the Emilia Romagna Region that, through a specific law, defined Enoteca Regionale Emilia Romagna as “the most suitable means of promoting regional wines in Italy and abroad”.
Today the association gathers 243 members: wine, balsamic vinegar and spirits producers, as well as public bodies, protection and promotion consortia, and regional sommelier associations.
Enoteca Regionale is located inside the Sforza Castle of Dozza, a little hilly village right on the “border” between Emilia and Romagna. The hallmark of this romantic medieval hamlet, whose historical roots are also linked to wine, are the paintings decorating the walls of houses, made by internationally-known artists during about 40 years of “Muro Dipinto” (Painted Wall) Biennial Art Festival.
Associated wineries are 243, ranging from the small producer who makes wine for his family and friends to large cooperatives.
Branches of Enoteca:
ENOTECA REGIONALE EMILIA ROMAGNA – CASA ARTUSI
A branch of the Permanent Collection of Enoteca Regionale dell’Emilia Romagna is now found at Casa Artusi, the wine and food culture centre opened in Forlimpopoli (FC) in June 2007.
In the wine shop a number of wines selected by Enoteca Regionale are on display and on sale, while in the restaurant most of the displayed wines can be tasted by the glass
ENOTECA REGIONALE EMILIA ROMAGNA – CASTELVETRO
The Castelvetro wine shop and bar was opened on May 29 2009. The first Emilian branch of Enoteca Regionale is located in one of the most renowned oenologic areas of the region, and is meant to be much more than a simple wine shop.
ENOTECA REGIONALE EMILIA ROMAGNA – GUSTAVINO
Riccione is one of the most important tourist cities of the Romagna Riviera and the destination of many Italian and foreign tourists. Opening a wine shop here means bringing the best wines of Emilia Romagna to people who, otherwise, would hardly get to know the oenologic treasures this land has to offer.
