Calabria wine : ウィキペディア英語版 | Calabrian wine
Calabrian wine (Italian: ''Vino Calabrese'') is Italian wine from the Calabria region of southern Italy. Over 90% of the region's wine production is red wine, with a large portion made from the Gaglioppo grape. Calabria has 12 ''Denominazione di origine controllata'' (DOC) regions but only 4% of the yearly production is classified as DOC wine. The region is one of Italy's most rural and least industrialized with per capita income less than half of the national average.〔J. Robinson (ed) ''"The Oxford Companion to Wine"'' Third Edition pg 122-123 Oxford University Press 2006 ISBN 0-19-860990-6〕 Following World War II, many of Calabria's inhabitants emigrated to the United States and Argentina. Those left behind have been slow to develop a vibrant wine industry with only the red wines of Cirò garnering much international attention. Today Calabrian wines are mostly produced to high alcohol levels and sold to co-operatives who transfer the wines to the northern Italian wine regions to use as blending component. There are no ''Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita'' (DOCG) regions but 12 ''Indicazione Geografica Tipica'' (IGT) designations.〔M. Ewing-Mulligan & E. McCarthy ''Italian Wines for Dummies'' pg 226-231 Hungry Minds 2001 ISBN 0-7645-5355-0〕 ==History==
The region of Calabria was first cultivated by the Oenotrians, and then by the ancient Greeks. The Greek athlete Milo of Croton was from this region and was reported to drink of Ciró wine each day. Tradition has that the wine is still made in the same way today as it was in Milo's time.〔M. Toussaint-Samat ''"A History of Food"'' pg 263 Wiley-Blackwell 1994 ISBN 0-631-19497-5〕 During the 1st century AD, Pliny the Elder included Calabrian wine in his listings of quality Italian wines.〔H. Johnson ''Vintage: The Story of Wine'' pg 64 Simon and Schuster 1989 ISBN 0-671-68702-6〕
