Italian Wine Regions
dante wine list:
the wine list at dante is omaha's only all italian wine list. we are
also feature wines from each region of italy. each region has its
own unique characteristics that make the wines & grapes distinctly
unique and different from any other region of italy. as you read
through our selections, you will first have our table wines, followed
by wines offered by the glass & bottle, then each region with the
bottle sections after that. below is a little terminology to help you
with your selections:
Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita or D.O.C.G. highest quality level of wine in italy. wines produced are of the
highest standards with quantiy & quality control. 74 D.O.C.G.'s exist
currently.
Denominazione di Origine Controllata or D.O.C. second highest standards in italian wine making. grapes & wines
are made with standards of a high level, but not as high a level as
the D.O.C.G. 333 D.O.C.'s exist currently.
Denominazione di Origine Protetta or D.O.P.European Union law allows Italian producers to continue to use
these terms, but the EU officially considers both to be at the same
level of Protected Designation of Origin or PDO—known in Italy as
Denominazione di Origine Protetta or DOP. Therefore, the DOP list
below contains all 407 D.O.C.'s and D.O.C.G.'s together
Indicazione Geografica Tipica or I.G.T. wines made with non tradition grapes & methods. quality level is
still high, but gives wine makers more leeway on wines that they
produce.
