Region by Region: Liguria and its Wines of difficult cultivation. Discover Online!
The glory of Ligurian wines is due to the particular orographic characteristics of the territory, a whole of narrow valleys, steep hills and mountains sloping over the sea that make the cultivation of vines and any other plantation difficult. In this way fine sips are born, from Syrah, to Vermentino, Barbera, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc. A Ligurian peculiarity is undoubtedly represented by the richness of the vines, due to the trade links with foreign countries of which Genoa was the protagonist, which at the beginning of the twentieth century there were as many as 600.
