In the heart of Emilia-Romagna, the Colli di Scandiano and Canossa Wine and Flavour Route winds its way through gentle slopes, ancient villages and medieval remains. A path that gives authentic emotions, where wine meets history and the landscape becomes poetry. 🍷 Hill wines with a strong character: The local vines tell the soul of the territory: Marzemino with its fruity notes, Lambrusco Montericco lively and traditional, and Spergola, a refined white that is winning more and more admirers. 👉 Tip: Book a tasting in the cellar with a view of the vineyards: wine has a different flavor when you taste it where it is born. 🏰 Villages and castles between history and legends: From the evocative ruins of Canossa, a symbol of the Matildic era, to the alleys of Scandiano and the hills of Quattro Castella, every place has something to tell. Fortresses, parish churches and medieval towers dot the landscape, immersed in the silence of nature. 👉 Tip: Visit Canossa in the late afternoon: the warm light enhances the profiles of the fortress and the view of the valley is spectacular. 🍽️ Local flavors and sincere welcome: The typical dishes of the area, such as fried dumplings, erbazzone, cured meats and Parmigiano Reggiano, are accompanied by local wines in a perfect combination. The trattorias and farmhouses offer genuine cuisine and a family atmosphere. 👉 Tip: Try the combination of erbazzone and Lambrusco: simple, tasty and 100% Emilian. 🚴 Nature, views and slowness: This road is also ideal for those who love walking or cycling through the vineyards.
