IGT area (also dell'Emilia) for white, red and rosé wines (country wines) in the Italian region of Emilia-Romagna (Emilia is the western part of it). It covers 2,950 hectares of vineyards in the provinces of Ferrara, Modena, Parma, Piacenza, Reggio Emilia and the part of the province of Bologna on the left bank of the river Sillaro. Grape varieties authorised in the region may be used. Varietal wines must contain at least 85% of the variety in question. Dual varietal wines must be blended from 50 to 85% of the main grape variety, plus 15 to 50% of other grape varieties. For the wines, a minimum alcohol content is prescribed for each wine type, but no ageing periods.
