TRERÈ EMILIA-ROMAGNA, ITALY
Morena Trerè runs her family winery with passion and flair, ably aided by her son Max. Less than an hour southeast of Bologna, her 120 acres of hillside vineyards slope gently towards Faenza, an ancient town of some 60,000 inhabitants in the province of Ravenna. Morena grows a variety of native grapes, and makes deliciously forthright wines. Wines for drinking and pleasure, the perfect accompaniment to the most refined cuisine in Italy.
Trerè was begun here in the early 60s by Morena’s father, Valeriano Trerè, when he acquired 35 acres of the farm Saccona, on the hills of Faenza. He started to produce the first three DOC wines of the area; Albana, Trebbiano and Sangiovese. Fifty years of history and great passion for the vine today allow them to bottle their wines and export them around the world, but the love for the land and their origins are not in the least changed.
