Tuscany's coastal wild frontier extending from Piombino to the Lazio border — once malaria-ridden marshland drained by Mussolini, now one of Italy's most dynamic and exciting wine territories. Bolgheri DOC (home of Sassicaia and Ornellaia) sits within the Maremma and spawned the Super Tuscan revolution. The broader Maremma produces Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Syrah from diverse volcanic, clay, and alluvial terroirs in a warmer coastal climate that creates wines of generosity and Mediterranean character.
