Wines and Flavors of Locride: The Authentic Wine of Calabria
The wine region of Calabria is still a territory to discover: the Wine and Flavors Route of Locride, in the Ionian Locride, is home to small family-run wineries nestled among olive trees, bergamot, and vineyards overlooking the sea. Gaglioppo and Magliocco are the main grapes, producing rustic and genuine reds, often paired with 'nduja, capicollo, and fish dishes. An authentic wine tourism experience, far from the major tourist flows. Book your winery visit in Calabria at the producer's price.
