Dado è Tratto

Emilia-Romagna | Italy
44°N, 12°E

A potted history.


The Rubicon river flows from the Apennine Mountains to the Adriatic Sea through southern Emilia-Romagna and served as the ancient northern boundary of Roman Italy. It was here in 49 BC that Julius Caesar ignored the Senate's orders to disband his army in the north and crossed the river in order to march on Rome and become emperor. Legend has it that on crossing the shallow waters of the Rubicon, knowing there was no turning back, he uttered the Latin phrase "alea iacta est", or "the die is cast". This becomes dado è tratto in Italian.

We made this pair of wines with Cantina Cortecchia in Emilia-Romagna, sourcing grapes from the Rubicone wine region. Sustainably farmed and championing the two main varieties of the region, Trebbiano and Sangiovese.

Now explore the wines.
