Lazio

**Lazio** ... — a central Italian region surrounding Rome, stretching from the Tyrrhenian coast to the Apennine foothills. It is best known for the everyday white wines poured in the capital. **Wines & grapes** — The classic style is Frascati, a dry white based on Malvasia and Trebbiano grown in the volcanic hills south of Rome. The region also makes other whites and a growing amount of red wine from both local and international grapes. **Character** — Volcanic soils and a warm Mediterranean climate shape wines that are typically fresh, soft and approachable in youth. While long associated with simple carafe whites, Lazio has seen quality-focused producers raise the profile of both its whites and reds in recent years.
