May 10th Special: A Toast to the Matron of the Home

Roman Wine: The Blood of the Empire
Rome didn't invent wine (an honor we owe to the Greeks and Phoenicians), but it did perfect and democratize it. From the taverns of Pompeii to the banquets of the Caesars, the tradition of Roman wine was omnipresent.
- Dionysus vs. Bacchus: The Romans adopted the god of wine and created the "Bacchanalia," celebrations where the drink was the center of social ecstasy.
- The Roman Terroir: Even then, regions like Falerno were famous for their superior quality, marking the first indications of what we now know as appellations of origin.
- Technical Innovation: It was the Romans who popularized the use of wooden barrels and glass bottles, techniques that laid the foundations of modern oenology.
Italy Today: The Legacy of Imperial Terroirs
Italy continues to be the "vineyard of the world." The diversity of its soils and climates allows the same lands that fed the Roman legions to now produce world-class labels, keeping alive the spirit of authentic Roman wine that you can purchase in our online store.
