Region: Aosta Valley
Nestled in the Italian Alps, Aosta Valley is Italy's most northern wine region.

With a long history of winemaking, Aosta Valley is known for its unique terroir and high-quality wines.
Aosta Valley has a long history of winemaking, with evidence of viticulture dating back to the Roman Empire. After the fall of the Roman Empire, Aosta became part of the Kingdom of Burgundy and was then ruled by the royal family of Italy – the House of Savoy – until the Italian unification in 1861.CUSTOMER RATING
