The region (Italian: Lazio) with the capital Rome is located in the centre of Italy at the "knee" of the boot. It stretches for 320 kilometres in the west along the coast of the Tyrrhenian Sea. All of the other six central regions border on Lazio. Starting from the north, these are Tuscany, Umbria, Marche (only a short stretch), Abruzzo, Molise and Campania. Even in ancient times, there was extensive viticulture and a distinctive wine culture here. The region provided food and drink for the capital of the Roman Empire. In ancient times, full-bodied, amber-coloured, spicy white wines came from here.
